I'm two years and 7 month out......I have Never, Ever had one minute of buyer's remorse! I'd have surgery again in a heartbeat. I love shopping, I love not being the biggest girl in the room. I am still shocked when somebody comments on how small I am or says I'm skinny. ME???!!!! I feel like I eat like a naturally thin person, I make choices, most good, some not so much, just like a normal person. My life feels good, like this is the way it should be. I still worry about 'gaining it all back'. In reality I know I'd have to TRY and gain it all back. I go up and down four lbs. If I'm up a little, I cut back, which is easy since I'm never really hungry and I lose the few lbs in just a few days. Forced Portion Control, that is what I needed. I don't see how this surgery can't work.

You are going through one of the trying times that will thankfully be just a memory soon. Keep your eye on the prize and a positive attitude
My suggestion is to speak to your Bariatric team. They should be able to help and may see that you are to progress some.

It's frustrating when you see such a dramatic drop right after surgery and then it stops. It's completely normal. I lost 15 lbs the first 2 weeks, then had a 3 week stall. I'm 7 weeks out now, and I lose about 2 1/2-3 1/2 lbs per week pretty consistently, but I don't see weight loss every day. Sometimes it's 4 or 5 days in between. Have patience, and if you can, only weigh in once a week (hard, I know). Slow and steady wins the race. Besides, when have we horizontally challenged ever been able to lose 27 lbs in 7 weeks? Be grateful for these small victories. :-)

My surgery was about 3 and 1/2 weeks ago.....so glad I did it too....I am also not hungry yet....I have lost 25 pounds since surgery
