Hey, me, too. I'm not as excited as you are. I thought I would be bouncing off the walls but, instead just find it difficult to focus on the everyday stuff and keep my 'secret'. Wondering why I'm not sharing with everyone. Reading some of the latest horror stories and hoping for better results. Knowing I can't do anything different at this point unless someone will kidnap me and wire my jaws shut for 8 weeks....

I do believe I've reached the end of my rope. Either I do this surgery or I resolve to live a life of consequences of obesity.

Going for surgery and different living.

Good luck to you.

(Post OP)

I started walking in the mall everyday after surgery. It help me recover quickly. Drink plenty of fluids!!!!!! Protein Shakes are really difficult after surgery. I have bought Protein broths, drinks, gatorade with protein, and greek yogurt with 2X's the protein. I feel like a million bucks

      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! 😞
