I am considering taking Mounjaro to deal with a 35 lb weight regain after 9 yrs post gastric sleeve. Has anyone done this and what were results?

I had a tiny slice of macadamia nut cream pie and a few mouthfuls of homeade ice cream at the Memorial Day cookout. I ate a small amount of Protein and little else & felt guilty. Back on track today and feel better about myself. I looked so good in my Bermuda shorts yesterday and DO NOT plan on ruining my progress. food addiction is a baffling and powerful disease. I now have to get the sugar out of my system. SOOOOO not worth it. I am back on program. Good luck to you on this journey as well.

This too shall pass!!

What a beautiful perspective. Much support coming your way.

Agree. Beautiful reminder

No one could have dragged me until I was ready. Several friends & family members need to address their issues too but I will not tell another person what they ought to do. I will just keep losing weight, getting healthier and more attractive. I am grateful to have found this help for myself. Each person must walk their own path.

A picture is surely worth a thousand words. You look terrific and your progress is soooooo encouraging. Keep up the good work.

Welcome to this marvelous tool to use daily on your journey.

I am 66 yrs old - almost 7 weeks out and 35 pounds down!!!! Never too old.

If I could have figured out how to lose the massive amount of weight , I would have done it by now. I needed help that would not fail. Now, it is a major life decision and has to be made inside the person considering it. If you are not yet ready, try the juicing route. Your decision, no one else's. Godspeed on your journey.

I am almost a month out and have lost 25 pounds. Have had a lot of nausea and hard to get fluids and Protein in. Just taking it one day at a time and grateful to be able to have this life saving surgery.

I am almost one month out. I am sick of Protein Drinks and puréed foods. yuk!!! I know this too shall pass and I am so proud of my 25 pound weight loss. Just feel sorry for myself sometimes but glad I did the surgery. When I go shopping down the line I will be grinning ear to ear. Let's hang in there together!!!!

I certainly know how anxious and scared you must be. I had sleeve on Feb 25th and have done very well. I am still on puréed food but will advance to soft in 10 more days. I will say a prayer for all those going to surgery tomorrow.

I am 2 weeks post op and sick of this diet. I dread the Protein Shakes, thin liquids and puréed. I want something real to eat though not really hungry. Good to know I am not alone. Thanks.

I am one week post op gastric sleeve and am doing really well. I am 66 years old and on the opposite end of the lifecycle. My reasons for wls were improving health and mobility in order to enjoy the rest of my life. I was wondering what methods you have already tried and also if you already have medical issues.? Your fears are normal for sure. The alcohol issue is a moot one for me as I do not drink but if you have problems with alcohol would address that ASAP. Wish you well on this journey.

I am one week post op today and certainly share your reflections. Glad I am a senior and do not have to worry about work.msickmof these Protein Shakes as well. One day at a time.

I am 6 days post op, have had no complications thus far and am 66 years old. Yes, I did say 66.

I definitely understand. I, too, have been cool and rational throughout planning but now that it IS going to happen, I feel anxious and afraid. My mind is my worst enemy when I am afraid. I am grieving too in anticipation of giving up the foods I depend on to keep me comfortable emotionally. I am asking for courage and calmness as I face this major decision which will impact me forever. Best of luck to you. I am right there with you. Together we can manage our fears.

Thinking about you today. Look forward to hearing details.

I am waiting for a date. Scared and excited at same time. U Go GIRL!!!
