I'm late posting but I did weigh in yesterday. My goal was 198 and I weighed in at 201.2. I didn't meet my goal..again. However, after stewing on it all day yesterday feeling disappointed in myself I realized I should be proud of myself. I took a long look at what I HAVE accomplished. I've lost 10 clothing sizes, I've lost nearly 97 pounds total and I did come so close and I did lose 7.8 pounds in 3 weeks..pretty good for being almost 11 months out. I looked up the word "goal" and found this definition: "the end toward which effort is directed". I did give it a good effort and will not give up. I've come a long way and had my struggles.. just to give up on myself would be a waste. I really enjoy the challenges, it makes me try harder. I'm so happy for those who made their goal..good job and to those who didn't, you met the goal to try :)

Unfortunately, I missed my goal by 2 pounds. Although I am maintaining a 40 weight loss, so I'll take it!!! I'll try for my next goal of 130 for Christmas, current weight 137....

      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! 😞
