Good evening everyone!

I'm new to the forum, and was banded on May 6th. Already I'm realizing that this is harder than I thought it would be, but I'm willing to do what it takes in order to make it successful. I'm looking forward to working with you, and am open to any suggestions that anyone has in order to help the process along.

This is a difficult thing however the benefits out weigh the struggle. I had a horrible first ten days. But I am loving the new me. I feel better about myself. You will wonder if you made the right decision during the first day but when you start to see the weight coming off you will be like why.didn't I do.this.sooner. this is not.something you take softly. You give it your all and you will love the results.

      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! 😞
