What is your favorite thing about your weight loss so far? Aside from the health benefits of course. My favorite thing is something I hadn't thought of until it happened: I can wrap a towel completely around myself! I can knot it up and it stays put and everything. It's actually pretty great!

For sure not having to negotiate fitting in boths at resturants, the fact that this was an issue before was a huge motivator for me in the first place. Also, clothes falling off because they're too big! Currently, anything in my closet fits either perfectly or too large, this makes getting dressed in the morning so much easier!

There are sooo many things.....I think just feeling good about myself again it the best. I was so tired of being sick and tired. Of course being able to fit in cute clothes again is a plus too!

I love being able to wrap the bath towel around me and it fits too, not the jumbo one either! :) I also love that I don't HAVE to use the handicapped bathroom stall in public restrooms any more. I fit in the standard bathroom stall without any problems. I love finding my hip bones after all these years. I love wearing cute clothes and shopping for them some where besides the plus size section of the store. I love not needing the tilt steering wheel option on my car any more. Oh Lord, I could go on and on!

I love doing things with the grand-kids and nieces and nephews. Yesterday, I rode my bike and nephew rode his long board and we went all over downtown San Jose. So fun! Then last night we went to the boardwalk in Santa Cruz. I rode all the rides and walked all evening without feeling exhausted. One great thing about the rides: my butt is so small I get air on the roller coaster and a lot of other rides because the restraints are loose.

I enjoy not always being the fattest person in the room. It is nice to look at least close to normal!!! I'm only a little over half-way to my goal, but I am certainly enjoying the new life!

      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... :(
