So what you are saying is, get in all the calories that I am suppose to and the weight will come off? I gotta try something because I don't go to the doctor until next week and I want to be able to go in with extra weight loss.

How many calories a day are you eating right now?

If I am lucky, I am getting in about 825 calories. How many calories should I be trying to get in?

I aim for 900 a day. That seems to work perfectly for me. For right now the only exercise I get is chasing after my 3 kids but I plan to get back on the treadmill next week when school starts.

Now that I'm on mushies, I am also getting in about 900 calories. I have lost about 7 lbs since surgery last wednesday but seem to be holding at that.

Im home and Banded!!!

Went in tuesday at 10:00am and my Dr assisted with another surgery ...emergency, so was late with me. 4:00 went in about . I was supposably in recovery by 5:00pm ish . Overall was a good xperience. I walked, walked , and walked some more in the hospital. No gas pain ths time ...ThankGod!!!!!

Apparently my surgeon is top notch , i overheard by another patient that he was flown to indonesia by the king and operated on a prince . I guess i picked someone good!

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      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! 😞
