I think I am going to do sleeve. I say "think" because I was very sure that's what I wanted but the more research I do, I am starting to lean towards RNY. I think it might be better for me with the amount of weight I need to lose. My surgeon said it's pretty much up to me since I do not have any underlying health issues (which I'm very grateful for). Are you doing RNY?

I have my seminar next week and it feels like things are going to slow but after this it seems like it may go very fast! i am so nervous but this community has made it so much better!

Im glad the endoscopy went well! ive never had one and ive never been put under any sedation at all. No surgeries of any kind. Honestly terrified but i really want this!

Just a couple steps closer! Congrats!

I am doing the rny for a few reasons. Mostly my acid reflux and needing to lose 150#

You’re the first person I found who’s at the same point in the process as I am![emoji30] At first the 6 month thing annoyed the hell out of me, but now I’m kind of thankful for it. Gives us lots of time to get accustomed to all the changes we have to make.



Hows it going?

      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!!

        So proud of you Cat. Getting into those smaller size clothes is half the fun isn't it?. Keep up the good work!!!!

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

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      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! 😞

        I may have to have gall bladder surgery during my weight loss surgery. Not thrilled about it either but do not want 2 recovery times. Just want it over with.

        Thanks for your post. I may need to rethink my decision... :(
