Ashlee, great goals - I bet you do them all!

Has made me think and I agree with the sitting in a booth - have now managed to do that. Went shopping yesterday and bought in the regular womenswear department and went outside yesterday in a sleeveless top - but still a way to go before I can tuck a shirt in :-)

For me, I can't wait to go to a hairdresser and get a fantastic cut that isn't just designed to make my face less fat!

I think focusing on the weight is a good thing. But a lot of us are doing this for so much more than just a good number. I think it's healthy for people to remember that it's not just about what your losing Its about what you are gaining in return

      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! 😞
