100 lbs in that amt of time is really something... I didn't realize that would be possible... My Dr. says 1-2 lbs a week is normal... was that 100 lbs from the date of surgery or includes your pre-op diet?

I am just floored when I see those kind of numbers...makes me think I am doing something wrong..

Wow! Congratulations on all the good decisions and hard work to make this dream become a reality. I keep thinking about the weight like two big suitcases I'm going to be putting down -- it will be wonderful not to have to carry them around any more.

Hi!! :-)

I lost 20 lbs during the pre op diet, which in my case was 2 weeks, so basically 100 lbs since December 1st ish of last year. To be honest with you, I really don't know how it happened so fast...I exercised but nothing too crazy..I followed my instructions to the letter..and my clinic is very restrictive food wise, because basically no carbs are allowed except for steel cut oats and bran here and there....when I see the numbers though, I still don't believe it....my mind and my body are still very detached sometimes...I had dreamed for about a decade to lose 100 lbs, but I had no idea it would or could happen in less than a year...I know everybodys body is different..please don't be discouraged...I thought long and hard about whether to post this or not....and the only reason I did was to try to give people hope....because we are fighting the same battle, and I got alot of support from this forum, and wanted to pay it forward..don't give up...everything you dream is possible...you will reach your goal I promise!! :-)

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!

      Today was rough...
      I've been experiencing a headache all day today that just won't go away. I'm thinking it's now progressing into a migraine. Does anyone else get headaches from taking vitamin B12? I did some research and learned that usually a lack of B12 causes headaches. But I've noticed when I take it, I have reoccurring headaches. 😫
