Congrats to you too!!! That's amazing! Are you exercising as well? How much Protein are you getting in ? :)

Thanks cynthia!

I haven't been exercising, but I'll be starting more walking and some biking within a few days. I have been getting in about 70 grams of protien a day (mostly from 3 protien shakes a day) and keeping under 700 calories.

I hear you on the shakes! They are getting old. Great job on the walking! I need to get going I guess. :)

all i can say is Protein, protein and then some more protein. i love my hair and was sad to see so much of it fall out after surgery. i am now nine months out and all of my hair is coming back but that is due to my insistence on protein. vain, i know. protein not only helps with Hair loss but with your muscle coming back. that is my tip: when all else fails have some (sips/bites) protein. congratulations!!!!

Congrats everyone on your amazing progress. I had my procedure on May 9th, so I am just hitting 6 days post op and down 20.2 pounds. Averaging about 3-4 pounds a day.

      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! 😞
