I'm 7 weeks out...and I was told at my last dr appt to start trying out more foods, and if it doesnt cause any issues I can eat it.....

so I imagine, you can do the same, but contact your drs office to be sure

started having popcorn at 12 weeks out. I buy the 100 calorie bags and savor every bit of it since I ony have it once in a while since it is a slider for me. I have not been able to go to the movies since surgery because I dont trust myself

I am 1 month out and want to go to a movie really bad but I know I would be CRAVING popcorn...so if I chew it really well I should be able to have a few pieces? That is what I am catching the drift on...I am in the soft food phase and I know that the butter in the popcorn makes it mushy! I know I am supose to have low sugar, low fat but is a treat really going to kill me?

You can always just try it-but just a few pieces like NewMan was saying. popcorn is a slider food, and oh so delicious, so try and not let it get away from you...I don't live far from Chicago, and theres a place called Garrett's.....one word-LETHAL. Good luck!!

      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.

        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... :(
