I'm in Florida and its odd that now I have to worry about my family in New Jersey for once. All I can say is I will pray for your safety. Living through Wilma was enough for me for the rest of my life. Hope it down grades to a tropical storm by then.

<----Northern NJ and prepared for the unexpected. I feel worse for those who live down by the shore areas and live by rivers/lakes. They usually are the ones who suffer the most. Where I am located we worry about floods and power outages. Winds can bring down trees so that worries me too. I am quite a few blocks from the hudson river which will hit the lower part of my town, I am wayyyy uptown so we are safe in that aspect. Flooding is going to be big, I just made sure the drain in the driveway is clear because that has a tendency to flood the garage/basement if its clogged up. Made sure all the patios chairs are put inside and garbage bins are put against the gate in the backyard so its not flying around the streets.

Be safe everyone!

Good morning all! Here in NJ hoping storm doesn't come - scheduled for surgery Tuesday! And I've been waiting so long. Surgeon won't tell me if it's on or off until Monday.

Anyway, question: I've always been a "stuffer" of food - does the lapband help? From all I've read lap band success is all in the head. Thoughts?

Im in Jacksonville. Lived in Fort Lauderdale for 10 years. It's coming so get prepared they said on the weather channel it has no where else to go but inland once it reaches north. Be prepared. Im sure there will be no electric for about a week so they are saying. Sending in trucks from everywhere in the US to help restore power. You can always have your surgery worry about the storm for now.

      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! 😞
