I had my seminar on May 14th and am going to my Primary Care Doctor to start my 6 month diet program tomorrow. I am so excited about eventually having lap-band surgery. My husband is so supportive and that makes all the difference in the world. I am looking forward to learning from all of you on the forum!:party:

How wonderful for you, and how great that your husband is supporting you. Mine is, too. He says he will do everything I do, even when I have to do the liquid diets! Silly guy!

Oh my dog! Bobbie!!!! Who knew the internet is really such a small world!

Congrats on getting started on this journey. It's definitely not easy, but it's sooooo worth it!

Hi Bobbie! I'm new here too! My seminar is scheduled for July (doc is going out of town or else I'd be in there next week). I've been researching the surgery for so many months that I'm just raring to get started! You gals are very lucky to have supportive husbands! While mine will support me with whatever I decide to do (duh! I'm having the surgery! LOL), he doesn't feel like I need it. He says that I'm perfect the way I am and he doesn't want me to change a thing. The issue is I don't like myself the way I am and if I don't change, I don't think I ever will, so that trumps how he feels LOL.

Anyway, I'm really looking forward to getting to know everyone and having the support I need from people that are going through the same thing!

Hi Bobbie, I'm new too. I start my 6 month diet tomorrow also. I'm going to see if they will let me do the 3 month diet and 3 month of curves so I wont have to wait so long. Nice to meet you and good luck. Judy

      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... :(
