Recommended Posts

I started at 264 and now 219. Surgery was 4-22-13. I am having trouble feeling it and seeing it. I mean my clothes are loose and I see it a little. I cant wait until my brain catches up. i wonder how others see me? Can you tell a difference? Just a little or alot? I am serious, I am not being an attention *****. I dont need you to say "you look great"...Just whether it is noticable I lost weight.

I was having trouble with the pictures, I added a side by side, but they are different sizes. My son was making me hold the sword.

I am still going to say it you look great. I see a big difference. I think you are right your brain needs to catch up.

Everbody is Right our minds just need to catch up with our bodies I still haven't bought any clothes cause I still am scared to however people do notice more than me but when I take pics I am like really is it just the different mirrors or is this what I really look like I hope that is what I look like cause then I just go with it cause I know what I couldn't do before and what I can do and how my clothes fit now cause they have to be taken in or how they start to fall off lol so look at yourself you will know what other people r seeing even if we're not.

I suggest you take measurement. I wish I had gives you another source of confirmation besides scales. You look great. As said, don't wear baggy clothes they hide your weight liss

You look so much smoother in my opinion.. Its hard to tell because you see yourself every day. Do something that makes you feel gorgeous.. I do nails.. Don't wear such lose clothing.. Tailoring enhances all the good work you've done.. You look fab..;)

      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!!

        So proud of you Cat. Getting into those smaller size clothes is half the fun isn't it?. Keep up the good work!!!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      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! 😞

        I may have to have gall bladder surgery during my weight loss surgery. Not thrilled about it either but do not want 2 recovery times. Just want it over with.

        Thanks for your post. I may need to rethink my decision... :(
