I reached Onederland today, it has been years since I weighed under 200. I should be thrilled but I am not, I have been hovering at 200 for a few weeks and it is my own fault. I could blame it on a stall, but it is really old habits rearing their ugly head. A bag of honey mustard pretzels in the afternoon, a cookie before bed, etc. Not nearly the quantity that I used to eat, but enough to keep me from losing. I have to take a step backwards, no cash in my purse means no money for the vending machine. My husband can't bring junk food in the house. I know he thinks I have moved on from that, but I am an addict and will probably never be able to have sweets in the house. I am scared now and appreciate the tips and support that I get on this board. I am so close but yet so far from being successful, Thanks for listening.

I am dreaming of Onederland myself.....at 205 I am so close but the scale just won't budge. I've increased my exercising hoping that by Valentine's Day I will give the gift of Loving Myself in Onederland.

I also think you should be proud of yourself for how far you've come...I think a lot of us can relate to that self-hate cycle that can sabotage any of our efforts...when I go through self-indulgent times like you describe, I know that I start beating myself up about it, which leads to more stress and anxiety, which of course leads to more yearning for my comfort foods...unchecked, I can get in a very vicious cycle I admit...when I have VSG, I am going to do my best to forgive myself for occasional slips and just get back on track...hang in there

      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! 😞
