Surgery Tomorrow!



Recommended Posts

My surgery is tomorrow at 4 pm. I am a little nervous mostly excited. I think this is the first thing I have done for MYSELF in the last 20 or so years. Im 37, Started this process at 315, been working really hard and I am at 275. Not much support from my family except for a few of them. I really am just excited, and am not much of a sharer, so I felt this was a good step to share this with everyone. I hope everyone else finds themselves well in their journey!

Good luck! That’s great that you lost 40 pounds before surgery. That’s a good indication that you’ll do well after surgery, too!

Well I just got home. For all of you that are scared for the surgery or uneasy, all in all it was very easy. It was my first surgery, (as a little kit I had tonsils taken out) and looking back on it there was very little to scared of. The absolute worst part was that I can't sleep in weird places so I was up all night last night waiting for them to release me the next morning. So I spent most of the night walking around staying moving. As far as pain, the worst part is the gas they fill you with, I still feel some of that. So, for all of you that are unsure or scared, you can definitely do it.

      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! 😞
