I'm 4/21/2012!

Dropped slightly more than 10lbs now.

I've been struggling, one day feeling good, the other feeling really weak...

Like today, was going to collapse while walking..

I really have no appetite to get any food in... :(

Cant find any buddy to meet up in Singapore.. Was hoping to get some support from this forum!

Cheers everyone!

I was sleeved on the 19th but won't know how much I have lost until the 30th. It has been a tough week and still sore.

Hi babypumas! I was sleeved on the 19th too. I'm feeling pretty good. It seems like one day you'll wake up and notice how good you feel. It just gets better and better each day. Hang in there! Keep up on your meds and keep resting.

Thanks, I am taking it one day at time and trying to rest as much as I can while the kids are in school but I am so glad I did this.

Welcome and congrats on your surgery. It is like that in the beginning. I feel like that sometimes, but less so now that I am almost one month. You really need to watch your Fluid intake. Make sure you are getting all of your Water. And take it easy. Take naps when you need to. It's major surgery, so it will take awhile. Good luck to you! Best wishes.

Congrats to everyone!!!! Hope everything is going good for everyone! :) I think things are slower than what I was expecting. I was sleeved on the 3rd & have lost 18.3 lbs. I am thankful for every pound, but it seems to be coming off slow.

      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!!

        So proud of you Cat. Getting into those smaller size clothes is half the fun isn't it?. Keep up the good work!!!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      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! 😞

        I may have to have gall bladder surgery during my weight loss surgery. Not thrilled about it either but do not want 2 recovery times. Just want it over with.

        Thanks for your post. I may need to rethink my decision... :(
