Tracquel's Journey



Recommended Posts

Hello all! I'm brand new to this site and super excited that I am getting my band on Thursday.

I must say that I'm a little nervous about this all. Today is day 7 of my 1000 calorie diet, and I am down 9 lbs I feel like this is a super feat since I've had little self will in the past. Plus it's PMS week, ugh. I miss food! Tomorrow and for at least the next 3 weeks starts all liquids :( They keep telling me that I'm not gonna wanna eat- hope they are right.

Anyways, I started this journey about a month ago at 5'7 244 lbs (my highest weight). I'm at 235 now. Can't wait to see what tomorrow brings :)

Good luck with your surgery and congrats on your weight loss so far!! My biggest fear before surgery was that I was going to be hungry but I didn't need to worry. You'll be amazed how little can make you full.

      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! 😞
