All these diet commercials and finally, FINALLY, this year I KNOW I will lose weight!! This is an unexpected NSV. Starting the new year knowing the weight will come off. I just want to congratulate all of you for making this amazing decision to transform your life!! Happy New Year!!

Weighed in today at 199. I have been fluctuating 2-3 lbs for the last two weeks. I have been making poor food choices, but those ended yesterday. I did not meet my goal, missed it by 7 pounds. I will track and I will not snack. I plan on rocking my sleeve in 2013, it will be my year of uncharted territory- I plan on seeing lower numbers on the scale and in clothing sizes then I have ever seen before. I plan on feeling better, moving more and truly living this year!

I'm having a facelift tomorrow' date=' a Tummy Tuck and thigh lift in Feb, and then in May will have a breast lift/augmentation. It sounds like a whole lotta surgery at this point, but I have a whole lotta loose skin. I'm not the usual age for a facelift I wouldn't think (37), but I used to hold a lot of weight in my face and without all that fat in there I have just baggy saggy skin. If I couldn't have any of the surgeries I would still love my body now far more than before I lost the weight - but this just completes the package for me.[/quote']

That's awesome that you're able to do that! Good luck on the New you!

Well, I was 283 when I weighed last week. I've lost 17lbs since day of surgery on 12-12. I was disappointed at first, but I am still very happy I dropped those pounds. I've also dropped about 2-3 dress sizes. Congrats to you all. Let's do a Valentine's Day Challenge. What do you say?

      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! 😞

      Iʻm roughly 6 weeks post-op this morning and have begun to feel like a normal human, with a normal human body again. I started introducing solid foods and pill forms of medications/supplements a couple of weeks ago and it's really amazing to eat meals with my family again, despite the fact that my portions are so much smaller than theirs. 
      I live on the island of Oʻahu and spend a lot of time in the water- for exercise, for play,  and for spiritual & mental health. The day I had my month out appointment with my surgeon, I packed all my gear in my truck, anticipating his permission to get back in the ocean. The minute I walked out of that hospital I drove straight to the shore and got in that water. Hallelujah! My appointment was at 10 am. I didn't get home until after 5 pm. 
      I'm down 31 pounds since the day of surgery and 47 since my pre-op diet began, with that typical week long stall occurring at three weeks. I'm really starting to see some changes lately- some of my clothing is too big, some fits again. The most drastic changes I notice however are in my face. I've also noticed my endurance and flexibility increasing. I was really starting to be held up physically, and I'm so grateful that I'm seeing that turn around in such short order. 
      My general disposition lately is hopeful and motivated. The only thing that bugs me on a daily basis still is the way those supplements make my house smell. So stink! But I just bought a smell proof bag online that other people use to put their pot in. My house doesn't stink anymore.
