Exactly One year ago tomorrow I got the call from my Dr Office that my insurance co approved the surgery and the Dr had a Patient cancell her surgery on Aug 10. So they asked me if I could start my liquid diet phase and I could have that date. I did and its the best thing I have ever done.

I have it on good information that people who have the surgery in August recover the fastest after the quickest surgeries.

So good luck to all you having your proceedures this month.

I am sooo nervous and excited at the same time.. I have no idea what to expect. Will I be hungry??? I thnk that is my biggest fear. Being hungry and not being able to eat.. How did everyone do post op. I have been reading the site and it seems that alot of people had problems with gas post-op.. any comments

Hi, I have only just found you guys and I am so glad I did. My date is Aug 1st, and to be honest I am a bit of a wreck. My DH is out of town on business and I find my brain is running overtime. Thanks for being here :}

      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! 😞
