That's up to you. My sister had wrist surgery when she was on hers and believe me they will work around it.

Me three :smile2: I was in the middle of mine and it was not fun, but I just couldn't wear a tampon during the procedure.

I wouldn't post pone it !! You'll be fine chica :tt2: The damn 'diapers' they make you wear aren't cool, but I don't see any reason to not have your surgery.

Good luck!!!

Thank you all for your comments. That is very reassuring that you say not to postpone it. :crying: Hopefully the stress of surgery will make it be a few days late.

Thanks again.

      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! 😞
