Today Is My 1 Year Anniversary And I Am Disappointed



Recommended Posts

well today is my 1 year anniversary and i have only lost about 35 lbs the whole year. i have had alot of difficulties with the band but now i think i may be on track just recently learning after having to go back almost every month to have some taken out of my band, that i can only have about .2 cc at a time. i hate that it took 1 year to learn the hard way but maybe i will have a better 2nd year. i guess i was expecting to lose alot more and that is why i am so depressed. especially on days like today where i can eat the house down because i do not have any restriction because i had to have some removed and i dont go back until november 7th. i just hope and pray that things get better.

Try and get back on track like you just had surgery. For two weeks do Protein shakes, Breakfast and lunch, then a light meal for dinner. The progress to soft/mushy foods like the 4 stages we are to follow.

Best wishes and Good Luck

35 lbs is still 35 lbs lighter than you were a year ago. I would go back to your LB rules for eating, talk with your Dr about whats going on and maybe see a nutritionist.

You can do this, you lost 35 lbs and kept that off. You just need a little tweaking.

I don't understand your situation but if it were me I would track my calories and eat a specific number...mi e was 1000 every day and you will lose weight until the band starts doing its job.

Good luck

      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! 😞
