I am 50 and I just got off the phone with my Dad who said I would regret it. I definitely felt very hurt and sad. I am glad to have this community. You all are such an inspiration to me. Thank you for sharing your posts. I meet my surgeon and do all my tests and meetings next Wednesday so I am excited to meet the new me!

The only one that counts here is yourself. You are doing this for yourself. I had the lapband on first and it failed miserably. Then when I said I'm doing the sleeve because I didn't want to die over 300 pounds, everyone was supportive. It is a journey, a hard one, but your strength has to come from you. Keep in touch with us as we are always here, and this board has been such a support to me and my journey!

Post-op at 70 was a breeze. No pain meds at all. I took a Tylenol PM to sleep. After having a band in, out, and hysterectomy I told him could he just velcro me. He said he was certain this was it and so far he's right. The only thing that surprised me was I couldn't vacuum for about a month. Dogs got smaller drinks, but other than that I remembered to keep moving all was just fine.

      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! 😞
