Dang, MsKoiya...I'm sorry to hear that. I know that was a huge let down. I know that they are pretty rigid around their requirements, especially the 10% weight loss. And to think, I was happy that they didn't require the 6 month diet plan, but I would def had preferred that because there's no pressure to loose the weight during that time. I still have 16 pounds to loose for my m10% and I've been doing Atkins and the cabbage diet. It sucks, but I really want to get the pounds down and just move on with it. Be encouraged girl, I feel your pain and the struggle, EVERYDAY! Lets stay in touch about the process.

      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! 😞
