Beachbum, Chanvita, cindy, thanks for all of your encouragement!

When I first saw the new pic (in the red dress), I could definitely tell something was different! Sometimes it is harder to see it tho. Isn't that funny?

I'm 5'2" and have lost 57# since my initial consult, 37# since surgery 8 weeks ago. I'm trying real hard to maximize my golden 6 months and at 2 or 3 weeks out I joined a gym. Have been doing Zumba 3x/week. I have now been incorporating weights into my workout. Having energy to move is such an amazing feeling!!

So far, I've gone from a 2x top to Large. Size 20 pant and dress to size 14. SA-WEET!!

It's terrible tho. I've become addicted to losing weight! I want more off now!!! lol!! Don't worry, I'm not doing anything crazy!

I did, however, have to miss my 6 week appt, so if anyone has any tips, please share!

Everyone - keep getting healthy!

I did where some have a little tougher time when they have the gall bladder out at the same time. But they felt better in a couple days. Hang I'm there and do what you can to feel better. I know it's rough and try to walk.

Oh Chanvita - I'm so sorry! Hang in there kiddo! Did you ask them if they could change your pain medication to see if that's what is making you ill? Sometimes you are having a type of allergic reaction to some of your meds and that's what !makes you throw up. Praying for you!

Chanvita! So glad you are home - it's all uphill from here. I didn't have what I would call pains in my legs but I had like spasms that I figured were caused by those ding dang automated squeezers they had on my l was in the hospital. Had the worst case of restless leg syndrome for about 3 days but then it stopped. Went for my post op appt and got my staples removed today. Girl - I've lost 18 lbs since surgery! We are on our way!

      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! 😞
