Ok I guess last week, week 2 being a period week and only losing 2lbs was Water weight or something because this week I lost 7.5 lbs!!! SERIOUSLY... WOW WOW WOW... I had to check the scale 3x. That puts me at down 27 lbs in 3 weeks (no pre-surgical diet) I have been eating this week as well and was worried that I would gain for some reason.. this is AMAZING.. I'm starting to really notice a difference and am so excited!

THANK YOU TO EVERYONE for all your support and encouragement so far!!

Good for you Chandra. Now, just keep the faith. Work thru any "stalls" with the knowledge you will see the weight come off. Be patient.

Have you named your new happy tummy yet.

It was about at week 2 I wanted to name mine. I was talking to it every day so I needed to name it. hahah it worked for me.

Way to go Chandra! Isn't it amazing how the pounds magically disappear. Then you may go through a month when you hardly lose anything, only to see it start falling off again. Don't be dismayed if this happens...the body needs an adjustment time now and then. Just keep on doing what you are doing and you will be at target before you know it! YOU GO GIRL!

      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... :(
