Hey, I'm with ya! This is the ONLY place where I can go that people understand where I am and where I've been. I've never let a man other than my doc know my weight, but every guy on here knows! Weird, huh? It's a good feeling. I'm thankful too!!

jewlk, thanx for simplifying everything in a nutshell. This is exactly how i feel. if i hadn't found this board, i wouldn't have had anyone to talk to about the WLS or listen to me. Sure my DH is there, and he does listen and he's there for support. He couldn't possibly know what i am feeling.(mom or daughter too)

you guys are always here for me for support, you answer questions, give info, and never talk back to me ;)

thanx all

kathy

Dooter, I have to agree. NO way am I telling anyone IRL what I weigh, now or after I reach goal. But, I post my weight here and on MFP every day without shame. I doubt I'll ever tell anyone what my high weight was, even after I reach goal, either!

VST has made it possible for me to make it through this journey. I definitely appreciate all the help I get here daily!!!

Isn't this site the BEST??? This WAS and IS my support group and cheering squad 100%! I think I would have had a much harder time if I didn't have this. I am thankful for it and the people who make it up every day!

I, too, would be lost without all the support I receive on this forum. I'm now 4 1/2 weeks post op & I feel as if I couldn't have made it without you guys! Thank you all so much for sharing your journeys, advice & life experiences! I just started my journey, and I'll be here forever!

      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! 😞
