I have been doing good. Progress has been pretty steady. Surgery was 3 months ago' date=' I'm down 30 lbs since. 50 lbs total. I think the only struggle I have now is taking my Vitamins. I keep them on my desk at work and still forget to take them! LOL! I have the memory of an old lady!

How have you been doing???[/quote']

I've been doing good...I think I have one of those "sleeve of steel" I can tolerate anything. I love icy cold drinks, hot tea and spicy stuff. The problem I'm having is slowing down...I tend to eat way too fast and that's when I get in trouble. I'm having problems with my multi and Calcium pills, they're way to big and I hate the after taste, so for now I'm taking calcium chewy bites and I need to find an alternative to my multi. My tummy just don't like them lol. I've lost a total of 66lbs (35 preop & 31 post-op). I never know how I'm going to feel the next day which is strange, but I guess this too shall pass. I'm slowly gaining my energy back as the days go by. I love my sleeve except for the days where I just want to bury my face in Chinese food LOL.

I think I've seen him being walked by our house?!? We rescued our girl (about 140 lbs) in Dec 2012; she's 19 months old! She needs training...badly. ????

Ha!!! I do miss some pig out sessions every now and then!!! ;) I have been taking Centrum chewables (not gummies, these are more like a clingstone vitamin). Orange flavor, not too bad. But I also was told if I take those that I need to add in selenium. I don't... But I probably should look into it. Same with my calcium a, I take a chewable wafer... Definitely not my favorite... But it gets the job done.

I'm with you with the sleeve of steel! I haven't found much that doesn't sit well with me. However, I have found that I'm stuffed right away, then hungry again within the hour. Perhaps I'm eating too fast, not sure.

Started my 2 week preop diet today. Trying a bunch of different Protein supplements. I know my tastes might change postop but I want to have something on hand for my first week.

Had 2 Protein Drinks so far this morning and I'm hungry! But I think it's probably more head hunger than body hunger.

Looking forward to my salad and salmon for lunch!!

      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! 😞
