Well, I'm just throwing this out there. I wish more people would post their before and after pictures even if you aren't very far along. I'm not proud of how I look right now but let's be real, I got myself here and it's up to me to get myself healthier. I am still pre-surgery but I am vowing right now to post an updated photo of me every month even if I haven't changed much. Who else is up for the challenge?

Thank u Concept and Cristy!

I pretty much follow the band rules 98% of the time! Lol

I just had an unfill actually b/c I was getting reflux and getting stuck w/anything.

I have about 5CC in my band, and can eat anything. I bought little 1/2 cup containers to bring to work w/me and thats how I measure my food. I probably should exercise though yo tone up! That's my downfall.

Well...., let's share some before and after pics!! I would love to see this thread grow!

      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?

      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! 😞
