I'm ecstatic about it I'm doing things I haven't done in years but I'm a little scared weight loss has slowed so much I even gained 3 lbs I kept telling myself maybe gaining muscle bug I doubt it...hope it's just a stall my first before and after pik I had to look high and low for a full body shot I avoided those and crop was my best friend here goes nothing

Sleeved 2/27. Down 77lbs.

II set a goal for myself early on. I didn't think I went too aggressive. I weight myself regularly, but don't chart anything until after my Wednesday morning weigh-in. Wednesday just happened to be the day of the week I had my surgery.

The following is a simple Excel graph showing my target line (blue) vs actual weight (red).

Today marks the half way point in my weight loss journey. I should accomplish my goal by Christmas. Last week, my 12 year old son couldn't keep up with me while hiking. What seemed impossible almost five months ago is coming to fruition. Who would have thought! Talk about a new lease on life. I enjoy logging into this site

every Friday (after I weigh in) to read about everybody's journey. If misery loves company, so does success stories!

Before preop diet: 282

Operation day: 258 on 6/25

Post op weight 7/5: 248...my excitement was moving slide 1 less 50 lb notch on scale at work. Creamy Soup is too much for me, experienced dumping syndrome which was not worth the taste of cream of mushroon soup. So far feeling pretty good about things. Survived being at july 4th cookout around lots of yummy looking good.

My dr recommended doing body measurements to show success even when weight doesn't always drop as fast as we want.

I am struggling to choke down my Protein Shakes. Where do you find Unjury? What do you recommend to mix it with. I liked Premier Protein but am getting grossed out by it now.

Unjury was so unsavory I gave the Trial pack away. The best $200.00 investment you can make it to buy the Ninja. I start everyday with a Protein packed home-made shake full of fresh/frozen fruit, non-fat Greek yogurt, flax seed oil, vanilla whey, non fat milk and a few ounces of juice. Couldn't do without my Ninja blender. Worth every penny.

hmmmm I LOVE Unjury--most palatable Protein Powder out there IMO. It's also "hospital grade"--most bioavailable one so many hospitals and physicians recommend it when patients need Protein powder for various health issues. I did NOT like the Unjury "cheese sauce," but the vanilla, chocolate splendor and unflavored are fabulous. They blend really well, too.

      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... :(
