I am here in deep east Texas. Close to Texarkana. Sleeved 12/4/12, down 14 lbs and have already stalled a week with weight loss, but am losing inches. 23 lbs down from my 1 week preop weight of 309.

Nov, 27 here. I hope all is going well for you. I have been pretty lucky so far i think. Who was your doc? I used McDanial. Don't hesitate to message me if you want to talk.

I'm from Bryan,Tx. I had surgery in Houston, Dr. Erik Wilson. Awesome Dr!, so glad I had the surgery!! Surgery was on Nov 19th, down 48lbs since pre-op. Its very hard to get in all the liquids., I've had an ER visit for dehydration. Felt so much better after the IV's!

      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! 😞
