So, I had surgery 2 years ago and did really well for the first 5 months. I was never a fast looser but I lost steadily - 1-2 pounds a week - for the first couple of months. Well, except the week after surgery where I lost 6 pounds. But 2 years later, I weight exactly the same weight I did the day before surgery. I still throw up most Proteins - chicken especially unless its in Soup - and unless a food can be made mushy, it's no good. I'm so frustrated. And am definitely not a big supporter of the surgery today. But I loved it originally. I fought long and hard to get the surgery. What do I do now?
