Thanks for the info. I am getting about 70 grams Protein a day and I am going to try for more. My dr wants me to only eat 900 calories a day, which seems kinda low to me. I figure as long as I don't go over 1000 I am good to go. I am getting more solids in now and that is going great after my first fill. No vomiting yet thank God. I really don't want to experience the PBing that you guys talk about. I know that eventually it will happen though. Thanks for all the advice, it is very much appreciated.

Hi kileybug, my band was March 1st and I had lost 13lbs and when I went to the doctor on Thursday I only had an 8lb lose. I was very upset but the nurse said it was absolutely normal for our bodies to do that and she was proud of me. This is the healing phase and I have to continually remind myself of that. 1lb is four sticks of butter!!!! Your loss is awesome, like 80 sticks of butter! ???œGreat job!!!

I am proud to report that the scales are moving down again after my first fill. I have lost 4 lbs in 4 days. Feels great to have went down a size in clothes too. My hubby and I just booked our 10 yr anniversary cruise and I have got to be bikini ready..lol

      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! 😞
