I go back to the doc tomorrow and I'll find out how much I weigh. I'm both excited AND really nervous...

How did it go?

WOOHOO! Under 200 lbs weighed in at 198 lbs today :*)

Congratulations! That is an awesome accomplishment. I'm a little sad I'm not there yet but happy that someone else from our surgery date made it :) I feel a little closer every day ... I'm OCD about weighing myself.

Not so great. I lost a disappointing 12.5lbs. :(

My doc thought it was just fine (35lbs since surgery) but I think it's too low.

Oh well, a loss is a loss I guess. I'm going to focus on getting all my Water in and get my fat butt on the recumbent bike consistently. Otherwise I'm doing everything by the book. SIGH.

Don't beat yourself up. That's a great weight loss! Think about what it was like before surgery. For me, it was never consistent. But now, every week I lose weight. Sometimes it's a lot; sometimes it's not...and sometimes I stay the same, but I don't gain. In the long run, it's not how fast you lose weight, it's just the fact that you lost it.

You'll get there. We all will. And in our own time.

Thank you so much! I had a great day yesterday. I was wearing size 22 pants and they were getting overly baggy so I went to buy a pair of 20s and found that I actually fit an 18 with a stretch waist!!! Yay!! :) You are right. I'll just embrace my own path. I really appreciate your words of encouragement.

I can't believe it. I've been saving a bunch of clothes thinking I won't be able to wear them for another 10 pounds. But I tried them on just now & I can wear them! In fact, three pair were too big! Best decision ever!

I am OCD too so I do not have a scale I only allow myself to visit hubby at work once a week and weigh in there.

      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!!

        So proud of you Cat. Getting into those smaller size clothes is half the fun isn't it?. Keep up the good work!!!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      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! 😞

        I may have to have gall bladder surgery during my weight loss surgery. Not thrilled about it either but do not want 2 recovery times. Just want it over with.

        Thanks for your post. I may need to rethink my decision... :(
