Martin perhaps if you put your head on straight more people would take you seriously....

that is a tough situation. maybe you can talk more to him about why he wants you to have one versus the other? i personally had the sleeve done 12/17 and have lost 68 pounds and love it!

That said, we also totally get that it's sometimes useful to talk to someone who is at a similar place in life. There are a number of 20-somethings around here, so I'm sure you'll find some age peers.

The rest of us are happy to chime in when you need support, too - and you might find some of us still remember what it's like to be 20 :P

Fyre, time off is against the rules, you know that already. Pay is the usual scale - you're allowed to make smart-aleck remarks and innuendos. Got it?

      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! 😞
