It's gonna be a loooong time before I get to goal, but I will also vow to stick around for a while :)

I will stay around. I am trying to be at my goal by one year mark, I only have a week but I may already be there. It has been a while since I went in and weighed so I am not exactly sure, but either at or very close.

I am worried about maintaining so I will be around. I have gone to goal more than once before only to gain it back. With the band I fully expect this to be it; but I think it is going to be a lifetime committment. This has been a great journey; the best, and easiest, for me. And note that I said easiest not easy.

Best wishes to all!!

      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! 😞
