Good morning, and let me tell you it is a good morning. Just got on the scales and am down 22 lbs. with 39 to go. I can fit back into my smallest jeans I had when I lost my weight on my lap band and am 7 lbs away from my lowest weight on the band. Once I got past the rash, this has been the easiest process ever. I did both of my county fairs and have just now caught up on my sleep. Its time to start exercising, as I was unable to walk these last two and a half weeks. Today I start my two miles a day again. How is everyone else doing? Sorry I havent been communicating lately? lets hear from everyone. I think of all of you often.

Hey girl, its great to hear from you..

I am doing pretty damned good I do believe. I am down 50 lbs and feeling pretty good. Just gotta learn the limits and I think spices hurt my tummy, learned that the hard way yesterday.

I am drinking my Protein and trying to get in more Water but a 20 oz bottle seems to be about it for now. I can have a bite of most anything it seems but I don't like the feel of solid food just yet so I'm not gonna try it often. I am making some cheddar potato Soup for me and home made chicken noodle for the family right now.. the smell is killing me. lol

I do find that I feel so very hungry, didn't really expect that .. but easy to make go away.

I do have heart burn issues but nothing that prilosec didnt help.. got a prescription for it from my doc and all is well.. I am very happy to also report that my doctor has stepped right in, started me off with the blood work I would have had with a follow up visit after my surgery, she was so awesome and supports the decision whole heartedly.. she informed me that I have lost 58 lbs since the last time I was in her office, and i no longer need meds for blood pressure or sugar or cholesterol.. hot damn !! :P

All in all I have no complaints and I would still do it all over again and again and again. I am very proud of myself for the food choices and the will power I have.. I am going out in public more and to madeline's school and sports functions.. which is why I did this to begin with.

How is everyone else? wonderful I hope. I sure loved meeting you and VIRGIL and hope to stay in touch.. my cell is 404-290-5959 and welcome to all my fellow sleeve sisters and Scott :P

i love ya lots and wishing you all the bestest

Vicky

      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! 😞
