Hi! No I only have to do a 3 day clear cleanse! The doctor said maybe lose 5 pounds, but nothing specific! What about you?

Hey! Oh..LOL...I have a 3 week pre-op. It is focused on shrinking my liver as much as possible before surgery. This is common for most ppl on these forums, I think.

I probably weigh a whole lot MORE than you. My BMI is over 50 so I can understand my dr's need to get that fatty liver shrunken up some. Crossing my fingers that it is working!

I had my revision sleeve done 7/3 and I’m in a stand still for weight loss right now. I haven’t lost a pound since I started the purée stage. Anyone else have the problem of a stall? Mine is a week now with no weight loss

Hi Everyone,

How did everyone's surgery go?

I am scheduled for my revision surgery (from sleeve to GB) on July 25th. I deal with GERD and also have a hernia that will be repaired. I am excited and nervous all the same time. But i'm on a new journey in life, I've started a new job and this is just another step in my journey.

I'm interested in hearing how my fellow July surgery buddies are doing. Thank you.

Oh no! How are you feeling now? Have you got support around you? How are you finding the pureed stage? My dr said liquids for 3
weeks then two weeks on pureed, and then two weeks on mashed soft food. I hope your feeling better. xxx

I had a revision on 7/22 from vsg to RNY. My surgeon (not the one who did my sleeve) said I had tons of scar tissue and my operation took almost 4 hours total. For him it looked like I had a small leak that was never caught from my sleeve. Weirdly enough I complained of pain twice in that area and was scoped and everything seemed to look normal.

I’m scheduled for this upcoming Tuesday, July 30th, revision from VSG to RNY, due to GERD and not losing enough weight with the sleeve. Sleeve was done on March 2018, I had a smooth recovery with the first surgery, hoping the same will happen this time and to feel like a human being again, acid reflux is not a joke.

Wishing everybody on this journey the best wishes and results.

Had RNY surgery on the exact same day. My surgery took twice as long as expected but I'm home now.

Dealing primarily with discomfort, hoping it approves substantially within the next week..

      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! 😞
