I am doing and feeling great. Down 63 pounds so far, 50 more to go. I wish my weightloss was faster, but it has been steady, and consistent. I enjoyed not gaining any weight through the holidays for the first time in my life, and I am also enjoying not gaining weight period (with the band I am officially off the diet roller coaster!)

This week I put on a pair of sz14 jeans to see how close I was to them fitting and low and behold they fit perfectly, I haven't taken them off for three days LOL!

The band works great for me but I have had good and bad times with it, getting stuck now and then resulting in my opening swelling so I have to go on liquids for a few to several days - but I loose weight great when that happens :-) all in all I am happy and thankful that I finally did this, my only regret is not having done it sooner.

My hubby got the band also 1 month after me and having a live in support group has been very helpful, and I think it had brought us even closer together.

      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! 😞
