1 Year Anniversary 10-19-12



Recommended Posts

Hi all! My one year band anniversary was yesterday and I am very close to being 100 pounds down! I still wanna lose another 20 or so but I thought I would share my photo from yesterday with all of you! I am very happy with the results of the band and I have no regrets what so ever! My before pic is my profile pic.

Oh my goodness yes! I used to wake up in sooo much pain everyday...I had to take two ibproufain (sp)? In the morning. I no longer need them. Now when I wake up I get up and have energy...no pain! I am a much happier person and have so much more confidence! Thank you for your kind words!

Wow you look great! You look so much younger. I think the weight off really does take age off. I wish could blow up profile pics as so tiny on my feeble eyes:) but I still can tell amazing difference. I am at my 6 month mark today and its been slow at close to 30lb. Just starting to maybe get some restriction but would be thrilled to get 40 off and be 10-20 from goal at one year mark. Congrats again.. Love the new you!!

      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! 😞
