I missed it FOREVER!

I was a HUGE Mt Dew drinker. I could drink 3-4 20 Ozs at work' date=' and a few cans before work. It was the hardest thing to give up. I have never had a sip because I feel that's my gateway drug![/quote']

Same here!!!!

Dt. Mt Dew was my "crack". I actually am ashamed to say that it was always on my mind.

Ugh- don't miss that addiction

It's mostly the carbonation not the caffeine. Caffeine in small portions won't hurt.

I have about the equivalent of 1 grande worth of coffee every day. Would you say this is too much? I like my coffee in more than one way: feel good, waking up, energy, etc. I don't think I would give it up unless the government one day stated that it was not good for your health in the same manner that smoking is not good for your health.

I am honestly not sure, what is a good amount. The caffeine limits is because it can cause an ulcer and our stomachs are so much smaller so an ulcer is much more serious. I would ask your NUT what is an acceptable amount. I myself am guilty of a 5 hour energy shot once In awhile. I can't stand the taste of coffee but like the caffeine kick as well.

Oh' date=' I definitely don't keep it in the house. If I do have one, I buy a single can or bottle at the convenience store.

And I proudly walk past the hostess fruit pies, without purchasing them, that used to always accompany my morning soda! Now those are "gateway drugs" for me. I do think I could eat a whole hostess cherry pie![/quote']

I hate to break it to you but no more hostess pies or hostess anything they have gone out of business. Maybe not a bad thing for our diets but I hate so many being out of work because of such a huge company going out of business.

      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!!

      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... :(
