I went to my seminar last september, did my psych consult, blood and urine testing done, letter of intent to the doctor in, my primary doctor sent a letter in, met with NP last november, met with surgeon in january. I hadn't lost my 5% yet, so he sent me on my way and rescheduled for tomorrow. I tweaked my diet so I was focusing on Protein more, increasing my exercise alot and have kept an immaculate journal including the times of the day when I was eating and making sure I had protein every time I ate. My scale shows that I barely lost anything. I am soooo afraid that he won't do anything for me since I haven't lost the 5% yet. Today I'm basically just drinking a couple Protein Shakes and vegetables and will do a little magnesium citrate tonight (can't hurt, right?). I'm praying so hard that he can still help me. My diet will show I've done everything he's asked. I'm just a wreck.

Someone very wise told me that excitement and nervousness come from the same place in our bodies, and physiologically the reactions are the same. Therefore, when I “say” I feel nervous, I choose to turn it around to being “excited.” That helps me. Good luck on your doctor's visit, and keep putting one foot in front of the other.

Good luck!

The weight will come off. Maybe your body is just in shock right now.

Plus, your scale may be different then theirs!

Good luck! =)

      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! 😞
