So, it's been many months... even years since I've seen some of my family members. Their eyes bugged straight out of their heads and was even unrecognizable to some of them. It was a lot of fun.

My brother said I better stop losing weight now or else I'm going to start looking like this guy:

I know... not very nice but if you knew our relationship you would think it was pretty funny... I did!! I also have a very thin cousin who's always had the perfect body IMO. She just about died when she saw my arms. She shouted at the top of her lungs "OMG YOUR ARMS ARE SO DAM* SKINNY!!!!" LMAO!! That was pretty funny too. You know what's weird though is that I really don't see it. She's still skinnier than me but I'm gonna catch her... heehee. :) I love her lots though. We are built almost identical and when I'm her size I know what I'll look like. She also had an augmentation so I know EXACTLY what I'll look like. She's a DD even!!! ...and no she doesn't care that I'm mentioning all this on a website, she's always talking about them to anyone who will listen! :P She deserves it too, they look amazing!! BTW, I'm using her surgeon most likely!

I do appreciate her though because she totally defended me to all the folks there who kept telling me to stop losing. She gets it because in all honesty she's very thin but she's also been one of those who constantly say she wants to lose more. It's crazy because before I could never see it... but tonight I did. I seen it in her belly. It's not bad at all, but yeah if she wanted to lose 5 or 10 she talks about I totally get it. Is that something normal? Does anyone else notice little chubby flaws in others that they never even dawned on before? THAT was bizarre to me.

Anyway I hope everyone else had as great a 4th of July... it was so nice to see all my family. :) I have a GREAT family!!! B)

      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.

        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... :(
