I got delayed several months for factors that I won't go in to, but I got my surgery date and will be having gastric bypass done on Feb 1st! I feel so relieved that after months of back and forth with my health insurance, they have finally given me the all clear and I have a date on the books!

I would be lying if I said I wasn't a little nervous, getting surgery of any kind done is always scary! (I mean who likes anesthesia!?) But I at least feel good knowing that this will be a wonderful tool in my weight loss arsenal. I have never been an average sized adult so I am not even going to know what to do with myself!!! Walk in Target and buy clothes off the rack? ME??? :blink::blink::blink::blink::blink:

That is great news! I’m nervous too. My date is February 6th. Our insurance doesn’t cover anything so I have to self pay. I keep asking myself if I’m worth it lol

      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?

      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! 😞
