I'm not starving I'm just sick of liquids, but I know it's not worth messing up my band! Think of it this way one more week of liquids and you'll be off to mushies! Then, it's done!

It is definitely hard this time of the year to have a surgery like this.

I am 3 days post op and was fighting a bit of a battle with everything looking so good! I did really good and my family is very supportive so my mom served me my broth and the dinner table. I had no problem helping my mother get all the food together! Just think next year we will be lbs lighter and able to eat. Congrats everyone!

Very normal. Im not hungry just the want. Want pizza and all the goodies here at work. Cooking for the family is hard. Its funny you dont realize how much you used to taste test while cooking, lick your spoon or finger. Its been tought im only 4 days post op and down 8 lbs since getting banded. My scale has been great motivation.

      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! 😞
