It's hard especially at first. The weight loss is a great motivator but I also had to utilize the support group at my doc's office a lot for help. Later on I even saw a therapist to help me work through some things. It'll get better so just keep your chin up!

Thank you! My dr's office isn't offering much help! I just called the hospital to speak to the Nutritionalists;) so well see what happens

Well you just and surgery you are going to be weak and sore. That comes with any procedure that is done. You were cute on of course you are going to be sore and your weak because you were cut on and are on liquids right now. Its not going to be like this forever only a few weeks if that. Your doctors office don't have a support group for the lap band or a nutritionist?

Oh I see. Ok I went through true results and they offer all of that. I have an advocate I can call with any concerns. Maybe you can look around to join some support groups in your area. I am sure there are plenty. Im here just inbox me if you need any advice, help or just need to vent.

      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! 😞
