Recommended Posts

Hello everyone

I was supposed to be sleeved on last monday the 18. It was cancelled so I have a NSV to NOT have indulged in any food because of my emotional train wreck I had when I learned I had to wait ... 5 more weeks! 5!!!!

Anyways my only instruction is: eat healthy, avoid sugar / fat.

So really I am at a loss. But I will be careful still I feel like I am let loose without clear instruction.

I know how to eat well and whatever but still. I wish they can some example or whatever to help when they have such a situation.

Technical problem at one of their hospital, the surgeon office I go to have 3 places he can operate.

I seriously don't know what I will do. At least with the long liquid diet I am hardly hungry.

It takes me over an hour per meal I hope it will stay this way until surgery and that I don't get tempted with fat and sugar. I will focus on Protein but I feel abandoned by all of this.

Just stay focused. If there is a bariatric support group, go to it. And don't hesitate to reach out to your surgeon's office and tell them that you feel abandoned and ask for more specific advice and guidelines. Good luck. You've got this!

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
