Thanks Susan. I am not gonna lie and say these are the results I expected. I honestly thought I would be at least 65lbs down. I am busting my butt in gym and most weeks see little rewards on the scale. I now have planter fasciitis and it is painful. I just keep plugging along.

You have done so well!

Thanks!!! I definitely need more time in the gym to tone up so you're definitely my inspiration on that aspect.

I cured my plantar fasciitis by walking about 30 every day.

I am in a night splint. I signed up for my 1st 5k so I need it cured so I can continue working towards my goal. You are the 1st person that said they cured it by walking that is great to hear! I still work out regularly but my long Sunday walks are out right now just too painful.

Plantar fasciitis is on big reason I had the sleeve. I was in crippling pain, close to needing a cane to ambulate. I lost 85 pounds and now am pretty much pain free. Stretch, stretch and ice. Feel better.

Done Did It!

No, no cast. I am seeing improvement by stretching and wearing my night splint.

      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! 😞
