Best decision of my life - insurance covered 100% Thank you Dr. Trivedi!

You look amazing!!!!

Im 6 months post OP I once weighed 325 but when I had surgery I weighed 285. I've lost 105lbs. This is the best decision I've ever made I love everything about my journey minus the flabby skin but who cares I'm healthier now. It's been rough but my mind was set so I just remind myself why I had to do this.

Amazing I started at 251 in October 198 today thats 6 months so you're doing great. Mine has been totally slow but knew it going in w hormonal issues. I was at a stall from march til now up and down about 5 lbs between 206 to 201. Hit 199 on my birthday the 13th then back up to 204. Til the other day finally down lower than my lowest. Hopefully my cal increase and exercise change is working

I'm 2 months out and have lost 32 pounds, I know that it has lots to do with how much weight you have to lose. My SW is 220 and I've been sticking to plan. Dr says I'm right on track.

If I dropped 60 in 2 months I'd be over the moon happy! Congratulations!

I went to see my surgeon yesterday for my 6 month check up. I have 1.4 pounds to lose to meet his weight loss goal. My official 6 months post op will be 20 April 2017. My surgeon and NUT are extremely happy with my progress and said that I have a greater chance of keeping the weight off due to my early success. I am so happy. I think that I should be at his weight loss goal before next Thursday. This was the best decision that I could have ever made. Who would have thought that being a loser could feel so good.

Regain here. I will weigh and post tomorrow. I really need support.

Let's do it! Weigh in tomorrow and let's keep each other accountable! We can do it!!


May God bless you and keep you️

I second this. I eat what my family eats. I just watch my portion sizes. That having been said, I serve my family food I can eat. No Pasta and potatoes on our table. We have scrambled eggs and ham for breakfast, I eat a P3 for lunch, and dinner might be salmon with mashed cauliflower and a green salad. Sent from my SM-G925V using the BariatricPal App

Ouch? I didn't mean to sound mean or anything. Its just when we get this surgery and I did 6 months of nutrition/counseling classes before hand it kind of gave me all the tools. You can choose to use them or not. I'm just frank about it I guess. Angekiquita it could be more of a mental thing. My Counselor used to tell people they needed to use the chair more then the surgery. I ended up do both. Trust me it was effortless losing it all but now it isn't, its a mental thing for me tho. Good luck girl you can do it!

First of all, congrats on losing 65lbs, that is not easy to lose. Second, how does your protien/water intake look? What kind of workouts are you doing- maybe switching it up to shock the system may help jump start some losing again.
Don't be so hard on yourself, even if you have gotten off track...everyone does no matter what they say. We had this surgery for a reason-if weight loss was so effortless like some people insinuate, then why get wls to begin with? 🙄.

Not sure what is wrong . Do you go by the diet guidelines we are suppose to use for our lifetime? I am 9 month out now I started at 250 also im 5'9 and below my original goal of 165 now I'm 145. I t was effortless really . Since only a few ounces ever fit in my stomach. Maybe go to a group for the eating part to get on track. Kiaser has one . Never give up failures not an option. Hehe that's what I tell myself anyways.

Actually, there is some research that supports that upping calories and then dropping them again helps kick start weight loss. One day and only 1300 calories should not set you back. Be kind to yourself and get back on track. That's all. Best of luck staying with your program.

What a life changer. I love every bit of this process and my new lifestyle. Surgery went great and no complications, my energy high the whole time. So far no Hair loss.
