9 days down on the liquid diet! Honestly it hasn't been awful, but it's tough when I have to cook for my family. However, I am supposed to get the bypass, but now I want to switch to the sleeve. Any thoughts? Maybe I'm just panicking last minute lol

I admire you still cooking for your family. I stay upstairs while my husband and son eat dinner and asked my husband to avoid cooking anything that smells good during my 2 week pre-op liquid diet. I give my son Breakfast, but later in the day I’m too hungry to be around food.

Hi everyone, I had my surgery on the 1st of March and am in the Protein Shake only phase until Monday. Looking forward to different tastes and textures. If you have any questions at all please feel free to ask.

I was a bit nervous before my surgery but thankfully it all went well. It took me a bit longer to get over the pain and feel mobile again, than I thought it would, but feeling better each day.

Hi ShaiMarie, I have known a lot of people to do the gastric sleeve first but then ended up having to do the bypass down the track because the sleeve wasn’t as effective long-term. Every person’s experience will be different of course and hopefully your surgeon can provide the best recommendation for you. All the best!!

      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! 😞
