I'm feeling u ..I started mine today ..it gets better after three days is what I read and my daughter just went through it... are u on liquids only or can u have veggies?

I'm very lucky. I can have food! Low carbs. I had a Protein Shake this morning, sipped on grape frost Isopure watered down all day and had a grilled chicken salad from Burger King, 10 glasses of Water and 2oz. Of ham after I cycled 5miles in 30minutes. I don't feel deprived or suffering yet. Hope I can keep this up for the next 14 days!!!! Fingers crossed!

I will be sleeved tomorrow. Woke up today at 4 am with pain in my right leg from yoga's class yesterday night, I think is the tension! I do excited and lind of scared. Casually i learned last night that a neighbor ( my apt building is really small) had a bypass last month and was talking to her for an hour, she telling me about her post op. Of course the sleeve is not so invasive, but it's nice to have a WLS neighbor to whom speak. I will keep you posted. By the way i am beeing sleeved in Caracas, Venezuela.

      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! 😞
