2 months post op (pic)



Recommended Posts

I'm 2 months and a week post op this month. I went to an ugly Christmas sweater party yesterday and I cheated...had some mixed drinks for the first time since my surgery. I'm down total 25lbs which is a bit discouraging to me but my doctor tells me I'm doing good. It turns out I'm losing inches fast and she says the scale will eventually catch up. Anyway I took some pics yesterday and I finally see the weight loss. My face is covered because I would only like the people I told to know about my surgery. post-237560-14191923391661_thumb.jpg

Looking good!! It's not a timeline contest. Lose at your own pace. You did this to become healthier. Are you healthier today than at the start? then that's the only thing you need to focus on right now.

Thank you! Yes I am healthier and I have to keep reminding myself that's it's not a race almost everyday. With my second fill I do notice the change in my eating habits, almost like food is boring to me now lol. Other times I'm like getting a plate full of food because hungry then laugh because I only can eat a cup of it. It's definitely a change.

I am also 2 months and a week out from surgery (Oct 8) and have lost 21 lbs so we are at a similar pace. I agree it is frustrating at times, but hopefully by this time next year we will have some amazing before/after pics. Good luck!

      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! 😞
