Just noticed - our birthdays are 1 day apart (although you're just a young chick); our RE-birthdays are in the same month. Cool!!

I'm scheduled for October 22nd - only three weeks! I've been working on this process since May, but now that it's almost here, I'm kind of scared!

I am now 2 days away from my date of October 6, starting to get a little nervous. Think I'll head to the Mall and window shop for new cloths.

Evidently not many scheduled for October yet, let us know

Scheduled for Oct. 20th but have not gotten approval from insurance yet so trying very hard to not have my hopes up too high. Good luck to all. I will look forward to learning from those who go before me.

Your presurgery testing was alot different than mine!! I went to the hospital about a week before surgery They drew blood to type in case something goes wrong, took my blood pressure, temp ekg talked w/anatheselogy (that doesn't look right but too early in the am to find the dictionary) and went home

      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.

      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! 😞
