Hey Kathy, I had surgery in July and have lost almost 75 pounds so far . .. I was also very concerned about saggy skin - I do not want another surgery to correct cosmetic issues . . I have a LOT of allergies to antibiotics and have had some bad reactions, so just don't want to risk it. I have been walking, walking, walking a lot. At first I could only walk 1/4 mile, now I can walk 2 or more miles. I walk every night and my skin is tightening up as I lose weight. I am still concerned about BOB (my Big Old Belly), and I don't know if that will shrink enough or not, but so far so good. Good luck!

      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! 😞
