thank you so much. I bought the one with the starfish and it wasnt really what I was wanting. I just purchased the one you first referred first. It is cheaper to download them to a kindle app on my phone. faster too.

What about the starfish one did you not like? I want to buy the best ones out there and if that's not what I am looking for, I will remove it from my list.

It talked about different stuff like "how you cope with Depression" or identity confusion, or urge to overeat ect. but it was just stuff that we know. Common sence stuff Exp: start a journal, go to support groups and how to find them. Im not really sure what I'm looking for but that just wasn't it.

The Emotional First Aid Kit is a great book. I bought it last week and read it in 2 days. I only wish that I would have bought a paperback copy (I would like to be able to highlight some of it). I'll read it again soon.

      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! 😞
