Went to a baseball game last night. I'm 9 weeks out and had my first ballpark hot dog ( no bun) ;) and handful of peanuts! It felt good to feel normal again and not have to take my Protein Shakes to the game. Thus far down 67 lbs,no issues.

Side note; this delicacy will not be a regular part of my diet but we do have to enjoy the pleasures of life in measured proportions.

Currently now exercising 30-60 min six days a week. Taking in around 1000 cals/ 80+ grams Protein a day. No carb counting. Losing approx. 3 lbs a week.

Having an issue! Mine was 4/17. I'm down 42 however, I'm slipping into my old ways. I ate a candy bar and I just prayed that it would make me sick. But it didn't..... it was yummy. And now I'm scared that I will eat one every day. My Protein is low due to Protein Shakes make me throw up. Of course the good for you stuff I can't handle but any thing that is bad my tummy can handle. I'm loosing hope at the moment. I know what I need to do but afraid the little devil on my shoulder is going to win. That tricky little f***er! I do use my fitness pal but I only have 1 friend on there and it's my mother in law! And she loves to feed people. God help me.. I'm a mess.

I was sleeved on the 22nd of April and have lost 21 pounds. I'm having trouble with my large incision. It continues to break open spilling blood and infection. So I can't walk on my treadmill yet. My surgeon had to reopen it and clean it out today. No shower for 3 days and no walking for 3 weeks. Hell with no meds!

I am 3 wks out and have 2 open draining wounds about 2 inches deep that i have to pack twice a day with guage. Its super frusterating cuz i cant do any exercise or move my upper body much so i know how you feel.

Surgery 4/12, 245 lbs

Today, 213 lbs

32 lbs in 8 weeks

I'm very happy with my progress but every once in a while I find myself munching on Doritos or some other junk food. The good news it's not half the bag like it used to be, just a serving! So I log it into MFP and move on.

      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!!

        So proud of you Cat. Getting into those smaller size clothes is half the fun isn't it?. Keep up the good work!!!!

      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... :(
