You look great! Lucky you...I have wrinkles around my inner thighs! Going to have to wear a skirted suit or the short looking ones! :-(

Trish- my advice would be to set small goals for yourself, stay positive, work activity into your daily life and find a way to work out that you enjoy! I love spinning classes! Also, listen to everything your nutritionist has to tell you!

Thanks! I can't figure out how to turn his picture right side up. His name is Duffy and he is a Goldendoodle. I ordered a bathing suit over the weekend. I'll try and be brave a post a pic of myself. I'm a short 5'3" and weigh 186 today. I hope I look as great in my new suit as you do NurseMeg!!

      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! 😞
