March 05 Bandsters-Can You Believe It's Been A Year???



Recommended Posts

It has been a year, and I am at 100lbs gone forever.

I am amazed at how my body looks. It is weird tolook in the mirror, and know that I am finally looking that way that I have imagined all these years. It's weird for people to tell me how good I look. Because to me I have always imagined myself looking this way. When I look at past pictures, and think about what I used to wear. My jaw drops, and I think why didn't anyone tell me that I was this big. Everyone says we say you everyday. You were who you were, but man I was big. I am loving my new body, and the clothes that I am able to wear. I never thought there would be atime when I would be upset because the clothes that I have are getting too big too fast. Ha Ha who'd a thunk it.

Lap band is the best thing going since sliced bread, and boy did I love me some bread.

      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! 😞
