I got the call a little over a week ago that my insurance approved me....I am so excited. I have been looking at pictures of myself in high school and can't wait to be close to that again.

I go for my consult with the surgeon on 3/11. Hope to have the surgery the last week of March....

Congrats. Looks like you are on your way! Do what the doc says and follow the diet rules and you should be very successful.

I am having the surgery at Immanuel. I am hoping to schedule for the last week of March. I have already lost 24 pounds the past month just on the diet waiting for approval. I only hope it sheds off as fast once I have the surgery!!!

      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! 😞
