Set the date up I'm excited but sad that no one in my family supports my decision !!!! All they say is exercise And stop eating so much !!! Its been really hard for me because i had never been at this weight!!! Ive been involved in sports all my life and after my son i have not been able to get on it :( i dont go out because im embarassed for people to see me !!! Im just ashamed of my body !!! Now im scared of my weight even my knees hurt sometimes , if u see me you would say it doesnt look like i weigh 210 pounds but i do

Remember, you are doing this for you. I am going through the same thing with one of my sisters, she keeps telling me all you have to do is this and this. I just stop talking to her about it, after telling her no matter what she says, I'm going to do it anyway. It is our choice my body, and I want it a lot lighter than it is now.

I remember being 210 lbs and thinking - that's not SO much. I don't weigh 300, I can do it on my own! And now I'm 305 lbs. I wish I could have done it on my own, but I've come to the realization that I just couldn't/can't. food is a crutch for me, and I need it to not be. We all wish we didn't have to take such drastic measures to do what looks so easy for some people, but we can't. I haven't told my mother I'm having the surgery. I think she would act the same way as your family. I wish you luck and I hope you find a way to pay for it!

      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! 😞
