Hi sbanfield!

I'm Millie and I will be banded on Tues. the 28th also!!!! Two weeks from today, yippeeee! Have you started any pre-op diet? Are you having your surgery in Houston?

Take care and let me know how you are doing. I'm so glad to have another bandster on my same day!

Hey Millie! Woohoo!! I'm so happy...we're both on the same day. We can compare notes on how the weightloss is going.

Preop diet...none. My surgeon said I was good. I've been on a 1500 calorie diet for a couple of months...and he said I didn't need to change anything. But I'm a chicken, so I'm going to do my own preop diet next week...just liquids. Don't want my liver to get in the way or freak out when all I'll be having is liquids for the following 3 wks. You know?

Yeah, I'm having my surgery in Houston. I visited a few surgeons in the area...until I found one that I felt comfortable with.

Where are you? Tell me...what you're up to. :thumbup:

Hi Sbanfield,

I live in Ventura, CA, about 35 miles south of Santa Barbara. I'm so happy to have someone else going through this on the same day! I still haven't taken my before pixs yet, but when I do, I will post them. My hubs & I lived in TX for awhile when he was in the Army. But came home to CA when he was done.

I went to the Nutritionist on 6/30/09 and she gave me a pre-op diet to start on (actually today) but I couldn't wait and I started it on July 3rd. I've lost 8.5 lbs already! I've started walking again at work, it was very hard the first few days, but it's getting easier. I hope to run in a Marathon with my daughter in a year or so! At least that is one of my goals...Thanks for writing back. Take care and let me know how you are doing, good or bad...we all need all the support we can get.

ttys,

      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! 😞
