Hi Christy an astephenson

 

The shuttle will take you or guest back and forth to the hotel whenever you like during the day, my sister left at dinner via shuttle , she was hungry and wanted to eat at the hotel, their is no place for guests to sleep overnight. The clinic is locked up tight, so only the staff can get in. The room has a comfy chair but it is not a fold out bed.

No need to worry about the hotel, it is very safe and very nice. My sister came with me and stayed by herself at the hotel and even walked around the neighbourhood by herself during the day. The hotel has lots of staff and lots of security. We were not nervous at the hotel at all.

Thank you Jordan1923...I was already worrying about her being all alone...plus she's a smoker (she thinks I don't know) and I was worried about her being outside smoking at night. I probably wouldn't have...but someone posted a link to some really scary stories about rapes/kidnaps from even all inclusive resorts by maintenance or security men. She kinda stands out from the crowd with her big bust and fiery red hair. Just me being mom I guess, but I know she wont stay locked away in her room like I told her too! LOL

Yeah down another 5 lbs from my original 250 weight pre-diet weight and 230 day of surger weight. 25lbs since surgery day and 45lbs since pre-diet weight. Hoping to be under 200 by xmas.

 

All is still well no surgery or eating problems, that aren't self inflicted; such as eating too much in one sitting. I am the slowest learner at this.

 

Merry Christmas everyone and good luck and good healing to you all.

      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! 😞
