I second everything that Vera said. You have been through so much in your lifetime and survived with a positive/wonderful/sharing/caring attitude. We both started about the same weight and I also weigh 161 in a size 10 too.

Congrats to you for maintaining the loss. Can't wait to see you again.

HUGS

Happy Anniversary and you are one of my major inspirations when I first started my banding journey. Thanks for all you have given me.

I can't really add anything that the others haven't already stated. You are without a doubt, a huge inspiration. I admire your strength and conviction more than you could know. If I were to lose my band, I can see me being completely negative and wanting to lay blame. I haven't for one second seen you do that. You're such a strong person!

I wish you the best in your journey. You definitely deserve it!

Michelle I can't think of someone more worthy than you for myself to look up to! You are the greatest example of a good bandster and a good "solo" bandster ever!!! I hope to follow in your your foot steps of success with or without a band your doing great!!!!

      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! 😞
