Any advice to prepare myself or my skin?

I feel like I need to run out and eat everything that I won't be able to eat when I am banded. How pathetic is that! Worse is that I started doing it and gained a few more pounds... Ugh!

Jewel... just take it one day at a time.

Don't go into this journey saying "i'll never be able to eat this or that ever again"... eat each person is different.

I can eat ANYTHING except rice and apple skins... and no carbonated beverages.

Have you read the post I posted to New Bandsters?

This is great site for information.

      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! 😞
