Awesome,,now what do we do?lol

I guess I can tell you a little about the way I operate after being sleeved. I eat healthy 90% of the time, that 10% is the part of me that the surgery didn't fix.

I excercise regularly (however, I have a bummed up leg right now so I'm limited) I'm doing mostly upper body strength for now and some treading Water in the pool.

I still fall victim to occasionally over eating or eating too fast. That area is what I need to work on the most.

I am a slow loser and I'm ok with that as long as I can keep my mood up.

I am one of those that weigh daily. I have my own reasons for doing that.

I journal what I weigh, eat and write about my daily activities as well as how I may be feeling about life in general.

Goodness you've done really well! Congrats on so much success!

      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! 😞
