The surgeon is going to do another surgery to fix the reflux. It's so severe that the radiologist that did the upper GI was afraid to let me lie flat once she saw the amount of acid being pushed back up.

I'm going to start the Basic Bootcamp this week. That is a great idea. If I could just see small progress, I wouldn't feel like such a failure.

THanks for the support. I feel defeated. :-(

You are not defeated. You are a fighter! Look at all the weight you've lost so far! Once the acid reflux is under control, you are going to rock that sleeve! Right now, keeping your diet simple with The Basic Bootcamp Diet is a great choice, + you will loose more weight. Head up and kick a** with getting better.....

I'm feeling down and disappointed in myself. I had a yardsale this weekend and maybe I wasn't being as food conscious as I should have been. I am back up to 221.4. Starting bootcamp tomorrow.

Don't feel down :(, turn it around :)! YOU CAN DO IT! YOU GO GIRL! I will see y'all Saturday :) HUGS!!!!!!!

Each week, I watch as my email fills up with the successes of the people of the page. I have yet to post because I have not had a successful week in almost 6 months.

I'm filled with jealousy and disappointment.

The last six months have been filled with complications, pain, asthma, vomitting and nausau and now, an additional surgery is scheduled. I am 11 months out and after dropping 100lbs in 6 months, I haven't lost a lb in 5 months.

I'm not giving up. I'm on a new medication to deal with the extreme acid reflux that leaves a horrible burning in my stomach and throat. Now, I have less urge to eat to soak up that nasty acid feeling. I've worked out a meal plan and

My goal for this week is to post that I've lost 2lbs on the 9/1 Super Saturday Weigh In.

Wish me luck. :-D

Honey I love your honesty! NEVER GIVE UP and NEVER STOP BELIEVING in YOURSELF!!! We believe in YOU! I'm so sorry to hear you have been going through health issues, I know how horrible and depressing that can be first hand, believe me. I have seen sooo many specialist lately it's hard to keep track lol. Keep working on it and trying to find out what's going on, look for new solutions/medications etc. so you can get better! Keep keeping on :)!!! HUGS!

I want to make my Labor day challenge goal so bad..so I worked my butt off this week. I did a day of all liquids then I hit it hard with VERY low carb. It paid off because I went from 221.4 last Saturday to 215.4 this morning...I lost 6 fricking pounds this week! I don't think I've ever lost that much in such a short period of time and I could only do moderate exercise. Lilmissdiva's bootcamp inspired me so thank you, Diva!

      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! 😞

      Iʻm roughly 6 weeks post-op this morning and have begun to feel like a normal human, with a normal human body again. I started introducing solid foods and pill forms of medications/supplements a couple of weeks ago and it's really amazing to eat meals with my family again, despite the fact that my portions are so much smaller than theirs. 
      I live on the island of Oʻahu and spend a lot of time in the water- for exercise, for play,  and for spiritual & mental health. The day I had my month out appointment with my surgeon, I packed all my gear in my truck, anticipating his permission to get back in the ocean. The minute I walked out of that hospital I drove straight to the shore and got in that water. Hallelujah! My appointment was at 10 am. I didn't get home until after 5 pm. 
      I'm down 31 pounds since the day of surgery and 47 since my pre-op diet began, with that typical week long stall occurring at three weeks. I'm really starting to see some changes lately- some of my clothing is too big, some fits again. The most drastic changes I notice however are in my face. I've also noticed my endurance and flexibility increasing. I was really starting to be held up physically, and I'm so grateful that I'm seeing that turn around in such short order. 
      My general disposition lately is hopeful and motivated. The only thing that bugs me on a daily basis still is the way those supplements make my house smell. So stink! But I just bought a smell proof bag online that other people use to put their pot in. My house doesn't stink anymore.
