Wow, fantastic. Simply amazing. You have managed to transition into a beach body without surgery for excess skin. Wish all of us could do that.

I've been using cocoa butter and Jergens skin tightening lotion. If it wasn't so dark you'd be able to see my stretch marks. I still have a little bit to go. Thank you :)

I started off at 271 and I'm now 170. I had around 600-800 calories daily the first 5 months and the last month I've increased it to 1100 or so because my body was holding onto the weight. Don't get me wrong I eat healthy, but I do have what I want in moderation and believe it or not on weeks where I stall, I'll grab a Big Mac or a small fry from somewhere and it kickstarts my metabolism to get going again and I drop a few pounds the next day. I make sure to include at least one Protein shake a day no matter what time it is. I haven't exercised yet because of a back injury but I hope to soon.

Oh and I'm 5'5. Don't be fooled I DO have some loose skin in the front under my belly button. The little bump you see is actually really old fat I gained in high school that's loose and yucky that I'm hoping goes soon lol.

      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.

      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! 😞
