10 Days until surgery!



Recommended Posts

Just had my final pre-op appointment yesterday and I was so stoked when I stepped on the scale and it said 249lbs.!!! I've been tolerating the liquid diet really good, no headaches or nausea. However, I did have a craving to chew some food...I chose to chew up a popsicle instead. I've come to far to listen to my cravings...not today Satan!!!

HW: 297

CW: 249

SW: We shall see when the 25th comes!

Hi Twin! You look FAB! Congrats on so much weight loss. You're killing it. I'm eager for the 25th to arrive. I don't know about you, but the close date is giving me a huge burst of energy to get stuff done.

Hey there Twinsie!!! Thank you for the compliments. I am so eager for the 25th to get here as well! I've already started going through old clothes and bagging up things that have gotten too big, so that I can give them away!!! I can know practically run up my stairs and remember not long ago I had to walk one step at a time.

Sounds like the same burst of energy pregnant women get before delivery. Doctors call that a Nesting Syndrome. Can we call this a Renovation Syndrome? You know you are going to get your innards remodeled and you want everything controlled in place. That way you can approach this with Peace of Mind. Remember we are proud of each of you, you are our sisters and brothers in a very special way.💜💚❤

It's actually a maxi dress. One of my favorites but, I am definitely willing to part with it when it gets too big lol

Good for you for getting those clothes bagged up. You definitely are feeling the energy too. I'm eager to unbox smaller clothes in the months to come. ONE MORE WEEK!!!!!

      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.

        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... :(
