Nurse, Missbritt, and Maden.. Go get your fills! They will help you so much. I had surgery on Oct 22nd and Had my 3rd fill on Jan 6th.. I made an appt for the next one at the dr's office to make sure I go in and get them. I didn't feel restriction till my 3rd and now I feel great!! Madein, I hear you with the 5lb yo yo I was going through the same thing.. get your fills ladies, no need to feel hunger! I have 6cc now in my 14band.

I eat about 1000cals a day, my Surgeon said to stay between 900-1200. Getting back into the swing of things and feeling good again.. Now to stay on the straight road :) We Are worth it!

See a personal trainer to start with the toning. They can assess tou better than we can.

I'm doing metabolical performance training and its working for me.

Yes! I've been taking Biotin (I've read that it helps) for a couple months, but it doesn't seem to be doing much, perhaps I need to up the dosage.

I'm also losing massive amounts of hair. Wish the weight would come off as fast! Luckily I had very thick hair to begin with. I do believe that it will grow back again once all the weight has come off...?

      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! 😞
