Met with the surgeon yesterday. Very nice man, was honest and open, and had a good sense of humor. I can't believe I started this journey in late February, and I'm at the point where we are waiting for approval from BCBS! Went on vacation a few weeks ago, and though for sure I gained 6 or 7 pounds, and was really worried about being declined from BCBS. Turns out I lost 4 pounds! Down to 280 from 304 in February.

I did share with him about this site, and how it's been a great tool to read about those who are on this journey, and the opinions of what works and what doesn't. I also mentioned what a good support the members have been on this site. I have been really lucky that not only did I find a great weight loss program, with an incredible team, but also this great website of fellow sleevers!

Good luck. The more you read and become informed the better you will do afterward, I believe.

      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! 😞
