My subject says it all. I'm nervous and excited I have surgery scheduled in three weeks. I think the nervous part is the being put to sleep. Although I've had other surgery it's still nerve wrecking. Well I've managed to lose some weight on my own and I'm happy. Just last few days I feel sooooo hungry for no particular reason.

My starting weight was 224 I'm down to 201 now and ideal is to get to 135lbs since I'm 5'4 in height.

I have to admit I have had some who support me other not at all, or the few who state "you don't need that". But my health comes first.

Is there anyone in the bronx, New York area? Any key advice for pre and post surgery? I have two little one a 5 and 2 yr old will there be limitation I should beware of?

So I had my surgery on August 7th. I'm ok walking mild pain , unfortunately I'm feeling sooo tired of the just liquids and its only day 2 of liquid diet post op. I'm also noticing that at first I had horrible gases now it seems I have the runs. Lastly, I seem to be getting my cycle when I had it right before surgery. Please help feeling desperate!

      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.
