I hopped off the plane at L.A.X.

With a dream and my cardigan

Welcome to the land of fame excess,

Am I gonna fit in?

Jumped in the cab

Look to my right and I see the Hollywood sign This is all so crazy

Everybody seems so famous

Hi all. Enjoying my visit/mini vaca. The weather is like Summer. Such a tease to an Ohioan. My stomach has been taken over by a colony of butterflies!!!

Heading to San Diego on Saturday morning for some adventuring and then headed to Mx on Sunday.

My emotions are warring inside me back and forth between "Hooray" and "WTF am I doing?!?! :-/

Amanda I am SO excited for you. I love reading your posts and am so happy for you that your turn is finally here!!! You'll be in my thoughts during your trip!!

I grew up in San Diego and spend about a week a month or so there still, so I happen to agree that San Diego is better than LA! lol Love LA, but San Diego is definitely less crowded and just covered in beautiful views!! Enjoy your visit. If I was there now I'd force you to meet up!! ;)

Best wishes for an easy and successful surgery!!!

Thank you everyone for the support and encouragement. San Diego bound in a few hours. I hope the weather keeps up this amazingly beautiful trend we've had so far. I'm very overwhelmed. No doubt, huh? More scenic pics.

      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! 😞
