Congratulations!! My surgery date was set for February 19th, but that date didn't work well with my job!! lol

I am currently in the process of waiting until the surgeon's office can reschedule me. I'm hoping for 2/12, 2/13, 2/14, 2/15, 2/26, 2/27, 2/28, or 2/29.

It's tough working around my job responsibilities!! =0

Are you trying to cut back on your food intake now? I know I have to start an all-liquid pre-surgery diet ten days before my surgery date. I decided to go ahead and start cutting back now to "prepare" myself!! lol

I am trying to cut back. I have to catch myself when I am eating. I am a high school teacher and I am having my surgery the Friday we get out for break. I hope that 10 days is enough time to recover. I can not believe I am having this surgery. I better get my behind into gear and prepare for the surgery and lifestyle change.

      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! 😞
