6 Month Progress (With Pics)



Recommended Posts

Hey there.. So I was sleeved on 4/27/12- starting weight was 245, today I am at 179 which is a loss of 66 LBS :D I am beyond excited!!!

i gotta say the only struggle at this point in the game is mentally being able to continue making those good decisions. I am starting to crave sweets and so far since surgery i have been doing great but its becoming a bit more difficult!! But i still have faith and strength to continue to be successfull!!!

The photo to the left is taken the day of surgery ( no make up or anything on) and the picture to the right was taken on sunday (at my 6th month mark)

GOOD LUCK TO EVERYONE!!! IT's been an amazing journey this far!

You look fantastic. I'm just 5 days after surgery and 66lbs seems so far off. I'm still on liquids and craving anything with a bit of texture now. Roll on the next few weeks and getting back to solid food.

Thanx for posting your pics. It's really encouraging for us that are just starting this journey. Keep up the brilliant work! You're inspiring us. :)

Thank you!! it has truly been a journey- the 1st couple days/weeks were mentally hard for me because i knew i couldnt eat what i mentally wanted to, but now Its even harder because I am at the point that I can physically eat those foods and now I am working on mentally training myself to say NO! Every day is a new day and if i can use my struggles/sucess to inspire someone then it makes me feel better! :)

      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! 😞
