Wow.. congratulations!

I’m having my surgery today, I have to be there at 5:30AM I should be getting some rest but I’m too antsy and hungry.

Oh my maybe Ancestry. Com isn't the zHoly Trail everbody thought they once were. Although many yearn to know if their ethnicity was, if they have my DNA forever could it be used to exclude me from employment at a future date? Sounds pretty Brave New World to me, and I find that scary.

Grail. not Trail, they may rhyme but they are vastly different things.

SO MANY posts on this forum begin with, "Am I the only one who....?"

No matter how that question ends, it starts with the fallacy that we are alone in this world. You are NOT alone.

Did I have doubt about whether this surgery would work for me? Hell yes! I've never met a WLS patient who didn't have doubts at some point or another.

You're at the toughest, most fearful part of your journey. But here's the good news: Just ahead there's a fork in the road. You're going to have WLS & things are going to change for you. That's super exciting! And we'll be with you every step!

Good luck with your surgery. Stick around in the POST surgery forum & help others along their journey too!

You are not alone.

I am just the opposite, I weigh myself daily to keep on track. 1 year out, down 85.5 lbs. Goal was 120, I am down to 115lbs at 5'2". Couldn't be any happier [emoji4]

That’s awesome. You must’ve started at a lower weight? I’m 5’2 140.. goal is 120.. started at 250 / ten months ago. But I’m now on plateau .. needing to push harder to get down.

They also become the sole proprietor and possessor of the genetic material once transferred to them, no thanks...

      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! 😞
