Tomorrow is surgery day. As I pulled into the parking lot this morning I could hear the Annie song in my mind "The sun will come out tomorrow..."

You will do great!! I just had mine this am

at 8:30 and so far So good! Pain is manageable and only slight nausea. Think they gave me a lot of meds and a nausea patch behind my ear that lasts 72 hours. Very sleepy and groggy but SO grateful to be on the other side of it. 🙏🏻🙌🏻☺️

Be sure when you remove the patch behind your ear that you either wear gloves or wash hands immediately. Keep out of reach of children or pets.
So glad you are doing well! Keep walking and sipping! The patch will make your mouth feel dry. Just brush and sip.

Anyone in this April group have Fibromyalgia too? Wondering how your energy has been, mine has still been really low. (Surgery 4/14)

I’m 16 hours post op and doing great. I’ve been sleeping a ton but I’ve managed to get in quite a few laps around the ward. I should go home later today.

      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
