My First Real Victory In 2 Months!



Recommended Posts

I was sleeved almost 2 months ago (2/6/12) and I just realized today that I hit a huge milestone!!

I plugged my height/weight info into a BMI calculator and my BMI is now 38.8. When I got my surgery my BMI was 43.8! I am no longer in "Very Severely Obese" and am now just "Severely Obese". I no longer qualify for surgery with my insurance company!!!! Thank goodness I already got it :D

In just 24 more pounds I will be under a BMI of 35 and be classed as "Moderately Obese"

HORRAYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hooray! Good for you! You inspired me to check my BMI (which I haven't done since surgery 8 months ago!) - And I went from class 3 (morbidly obese) to class 1 (regular obese)! Thanks for sharing your victory!

I may not be seeing much in the way of scale movement but that was SERIOUSLY awesome to see! It definitely kicked me to want to work harder.

      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! 😞
