Hello I am having sleeve surgery on 5/23. Since its after midnight here I am 2 weeks away ahhh. Lol it's nerve wracking and exciting. This is my first surgery ever so I'm trying to keep my nerves down but I am starting 2 week liquid diet today. My doctor let's me have a small meal a day with it so not too bad. Anyway good luck to you as well and I'm excited to share our successes on here. It's a very emotional journey for sure and we all can support each other here. :-)

Great to hear from you both! I've been an O.R. nurse for 25+ years; not sure if I'm more nervous or less because of that fact, lol! Anyway, if anyone has any questions about being a surgical patient, ask away! Looking forward to checking in with you both as we move through this journey. :)

I'm also a nurse, mental health for me.

Doctors key into disease, Nurses key into health and improving lives, Can you detect a little bias here?

      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! 😞
