Hello Brent my name is Taryn and Im in Perth, Australia. Your story and the rest of us i think are the same. I decided to something aswell as I have been trying to have a baby and losing weight will definately help to be healthier through pregnancy and with a little one. I was due to have my surgery on the 31st Oct but 3 days before I found out I was pregnant, yay.....but our delight was short lived as I miss carried a month later so i went back to my surgoen and he got me on Monday so Im right with you love, 4 days in and going well. Im not hungry at all tho.

Get some Soup if you are a hungry as it will fill you very quickly. You will be fine and hang in there with the liquids over the next few days.

      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! 😞
