Hi NeedtoLoseWeight

Yay! Same date as me!

I don't have a liquid diet prior to surgery mine is 2weeks of 1000 calories a day.

I'm apprehensive about the post op 4 week liquid diet though!. Has your surgeon team given you an idea of what you can have liquid wise that will still fill you up?

Oh yay. Can’t wait!
No they haven’t but I’ve got an appointment with dietitian next week and hopefully get an idea. I have bought some Protein Shakes and Meal Replacements to help with liquid diet.

Hello everyone, I just got told today my duodenal switch surgery is April 5th. I finally got my surgery date. It may be a while. But it will be here before I know it. My high Protein low carb diet starts March 22nd. Can't wait to get started. Can't wait to get to know all of you.

I dislike having to get my ducks in a row yet before surgery. Setting up my time off with HR, doing the last minute stuff that needs to be done. Otherwise, very excited to start a new chapter in my life. I've been overweight since birth, quite seriously. I was 2 ounces shy of 12 pounds. To be honest, I don't hold out much hope of never being overweight, but getting out of obese and morbidly obese categories thrills me. Don't get me wrong, I am in this 100% and plan to do my very best. Just hard to imagine me not being "me" if that makes sense?

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      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
