I would do it again in a heartbeat! best of luck to all of you, and if anyone has questions or needs to chat please shoot me an email!

Hmm.. it seems to me you should really let your Dr. know the fills arent working-- maybe he just doesnt want to over do it. Also, are you drinking high calorie drinks-- those are a killer. I recomment you eat as much protien as possible-- it is really filling and not high in calories. Try not to drink Water before or after your meals and if you excersice your metabolism will burn calories. Hope this helps!

I have got all my ducks in a row except the psychiatric evaluation. I can't get anyone to call me back. Would you recommend anyone to do the evaluation? I'm so frustrated and my consultation is on the 15th. Thank you for any help!

Hello I am from Dallas,TX newly banded on 12/22/08. I would love to chat with you from time to time to learn things you did to help with the weightloss. I am nervous about what I should be eating. I just want a friend to chat with that has gone through this process. Feel free to contact me via email.vanettaa2002@yahoo.com and I would love to have a email address to contact you at if that is okay.

      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!!

        So proud of you Cat. Getting into those smaller size clothes is half the fun isn't it?. Keep up the good work!!!!

      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

      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! 😞

        I may have to have gall bladder surgery during my weight loss surgery. Not thrilled about it either but do not want 2 recovery times. Just want it over with.

        Thanks for your post. I may need to rethink my decision... :(
