I'm down 20 lbs today! That's counting from the post op diet. I was sleeved 3/27 and 12.2 lbs since surgery. I had a week stall right after surgery and just broke thru this week.

I started exercising this week with 30 mins on the elliptical. My doc said I could start jogging if I wanted and weight lifting so long as it's nothing over 25 lbs.

I feel fantastic. I have so much more energy and so much less pain already. it's like even if I don't lose another pound I already feel like a winner. Of course, I HOPE I lose many many more pounds :)

How much have you lost so far? I'm down about 40lbs. I have been stalling off and on since week 2. It seems if I don't exercise I don't lose so I try to walk 4 days a week.

Happy 2nd monthly Anniversary !! Hope everyone is doing great.

I am losing very slowly these days. I started with around 195 and now I am around 170.

Have any one of you heard a rule that we are not supposed eat and drink together ?

Struggle with food choices over the weekends. There are too many parties and social gatherings.... It gets challenging to be on track.

Maya,

That was one rule my doctor and NUT were fanatic about - no drinking for at least 30 mins before a meal and 30 mins after a meal. They noted that avoiding this rule could lead to weight gain.

You may want to check with your doctor. Good luck to you!

Thank you Kelly ! I will try not to mix food and liquids together. I should check with my doctor as well. But it helps to know that I am not the only one :-) Do you know until when are we supposed to follow this rule.

Down 48 :-) my only complaint is back pain. Oh yeah and I still can't tolerate bread. That makes me kind of sad, but it could be worse.

      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!!

        So proud of you Cat. Getting into those smaller size clothes is half the fun isn't it?. Keep up the good work!!!!

      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... :(
