Its been a LONG process but I have my date. I will be joining the looser bench on June 30th. I have had mixed emotions after getting my date. I keep asking myself I am making a good decision. Did anyone else feel this way?

I am day 8 and I had those omg what did I do moments but then I realized I HAD to do this. There are things in life we don’t necessarily want, but need all the same. I had/have PCOS and my doctor told me there was pretty much no chance to lose the weight without surgery. I am down 15.5 lbs and already look at food differently.

I counted down everyday waiting I couldn't get the surgery done soon enough I only wish I had done it years earlier.

It's the best choice don't stress about it.

Congratulations! Best, Best, Best decision I’ve made! And Yes, I questioned myself many times over it, but had tried, tried, tried and finally, IT WAS TIME!

I think almost every one of us went through that "What the hell am I about to do to myself" phase, followed by the "What the hell did I DO to myself" phase. You are about to have major life changing surgery so you would have to be a rock not to have some emotions about it. Excitement and fear aren't very far apart on the spectrum, so you'll feel both at the same time!

Good luck--YOU GOT THIS!!!

      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! 😞
