My name is Alycia and I have surgery tomorrow 3/16/10. I can't wait I had to start the Clear Liquids thursday so this is day 5 and I am SOOOOOO hungry my head is pounding but I keep telling myself it's so worth it. I'm excited and nervous all at once and can't wait for the journey ahead and a new start in my life. I'm currently at 282 minus the 9 pounds I've lost in the last 5 days.:thumbup:

Hello,

I had my surgery last Monday (3/8). Things are going quite well. I am still in my liquid phase but its okay. I am not nearly as hungry as I thought I would be. Good luck on your surgery!

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
