Sorry to hear that Libra. I agree with Indianlight...you'll stay strong and you'll make it through without gaining it all back. You can do it and we're here for ya if you need to vent!!

Thanks everyone! The dr's office called and said to call back on Thursday to see if there are any cancellations for a fill on Friday. I'm keeping my fingers crossed! If not, I'll just have to be careful. I really need to learn not to stress too much about these things. I immediated start to panic and I shouldn't do that.

Woohoo! Way to go Mariquita! The 200s are so much fun -- we're glad to have you here! You're close to the century mark too -- so exciting.

Keep up the good work.

Wow, talk about a reeling memory. I was just persuing some old posts, looking for something, and came across a post of mine where I couldn't wait to get to Twoterville, and quite possibly questioned whether or not I could do it.

Times like this are when the big picture really hits you. Day by day my weightloss is not spectacular. Even month to month. It just kind of... is. But then you step back and see the forest and wow, there are a lot of trees in there!

I'd like to be anywhere in the 250s by xmas. I'm weighing around 265 now so it's a possiblity, but not a probability.

And this coming from someone who doesn't like to set goals.

At least not with weightloss.

Well, I tried waiting a few days before I posted just to be sure...but I've been under 250 for a couple days! Can you believe it?? I can't! Honestly, when I even considered surgery I thought...if I can go from pretty much 400 down to 250 within a few years then I'd be satisfied. I cannot believe I have actually hit this goal. I feel like I have a shot at slowly moving toward a weight within the normal or even slightly overweight range. I want to get rid of that "obese" title from my medical records by the end of next year. My next year's Christmas goal is to lose the word "obese"! Thank you to all of my friends here who continue to encourage and support me! Without you guys I know the journey wouldn't be this successful or fun!!

      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! 😞
