:high5: :whoo: :whoo: :D

Last Sunday, December 24th -- Christmas Eve -- was the roughest day so far in my quit. It was day 32 of being smoke-free, and thought it would be my last smoke-free day.
Christmas morning came. I got up and got my coffee. I came upstairs to the computer to look at these message boards.

But........wait.........something was different.

I no longer had that spacey, empty, on-edge feeling I had had for 32 days straight. I took a deep breath and concentrated on how I was feeling at that moment. "Hey," I thought. "That's not half bad! I feel......wonderful!"

Today makes 37 days smoke-free, and I've turned a corner in this journey. I know now that I WILL be an ex-smoker for life!

:mad:

I just have to shout if for you and say CONGRATULATIONS!!!! You deserve it. It is not easy to deal with one vice but you are dealing with 2 at the same time. :):bananapartyhat:

You are to be :hail:commended for moving forward in both of these struggles. I am so happy you can see light at the end of the tunnel. :D:clap2: :clap2: :clap2: :clap2: :clap2: :clap2: :clap2: :eek:

GOOOOOOOO BULLWINKLE!!

Oh, my GOD!!! THANK YOU!!!

That means SO much to me! Now that I've got that monkey off my back, I can concentrate on losing these extra pounds I've packed on, and then having my band!!

What would I do without the constant support here at LBT???

Life is GOOD!!

      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! 😞
