Recommended Posts

I have not seen my Endocrinologist in 90 days.

When I first seen him I weighed 305Lbs. (THE NURSE SHOULD ME ON PAPER), Today I weighed 271Lbs... "YES !"

She was shocked, and I to was surprised, that's a little more then 11Lbs. a month. That's not bad at all !

She thought it was do to my Thyroid Medicine, and I had to break her Heart and say "NO, I HAD MY LAPBAND FILLED.) Ogh......

I told her it's still a good thing ! It's a loss. She agreed.

So for all the Newbies, and non believers this is for you. Consistency is the key...

I stay between 800-1200 calories a day, 60-80G of Protein a day, I never weigh myself at home, only on a Dr.'s scale, Drink my MUSCLE MILK LITE, and I walk around the block every other day. I record all my stuff on myfitnesspal.com that's it.

and it is nice and slowly coming off.

So my Turtle is slowly moving. I can't wait to see it next year , or myself . :party:

Congratulations on your approval ! i had know idea that you were changing over?

I wish only the best in Good Health...

Let us know when you get your date set (IN STONE !)

I am also on there site, I didn't know if I would have this band fixed,or go to the sleeve at one point !

Turned out the Band was just deflated.

If Medicare ever makes it covered on their Ins. I might look into that..

Good Luck on your Journey.

Shirley.

      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! 😞
