Feeling Great



Recommended Posts

Six months later, I have lost 60 lbs since surgery. I've dropped from a size 20w to size 14. My bra size dropped from a 44G to 38DD. At my heaviest weight, I was 275, today I am 193. This has been an amazing journey. However, I don't see the weight loss like others do, so can be quite frustrating. Taking various photos and comparing them has helped visualize my weight loss. Other than that, I feel great. More energy, no more back pain. Having the surgery has been a great step toward A BETTER ME.

This is the tough part of our journey. Seeing the size difference is really hard at times. It is quite helpful to find an old pic of yourself and put a new pic next to the old pic and you will see the difference! Keep up the hard work. Can't wait to hear more. :)

      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! 😞
