Started at a high of 372; down to 353 on surgery day. Had surgery 8-20-12 and I am now 236. Weight loss was several pounds per week in the early months, now 1-2 per week. Good luck

Wow! You all are doing so well! I know women lose weight slower than men..but I hope ill have really good numbers! Started my clear liquid diet yesterday. ..so not fun! Day 2 of 14 and then surgery time! My fear is not being able to get in all the Water, Protein, and Vitamins post op!

The first few days were hard for me too, I have a feeling you are going to do great with it. Just remember the end goal. I will keep you updated on how things are going.

Six months post op and I'm down 118 lbs,but the trouble is I still get sick to my stomach after every meal which lasts for about an 40to 60 minutes driving me a little nuts, but maybe I'm just being impatient. Dr says could last for up to a year or so. Any feedback or thoughts?

      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... :(
