Yup - I ate the whole plate. It was about 5 ounces of shredded chicken and 3 ounces of cucumber.

You can eat more further on post op, especially after month 6. This is both a blessing and a bane for folks. If you focus on sourcing your calories from Protein, eating more only makes you lose more weight and get more fit. Do not worry, I went through the same phases as you during the early months post op ( eg only being able to eat 1-3 ounces of chicken). I eat 7-8 times a day now and try to eat about 1700-1900 calories. For this reason, I am always eating every 2 -3 hours.lol. Literally chomping or drinking Water from rise until bed. Never hungry though and still lose weight. last week was 10 lb below original goal and am focused on building muscle to reduce body fat and get stronger (currently at 12% and need to update my picture, from 3 months ago).

Just focus on eating clean sources of Protein and veggies and you will do just fine when you are able to tolerate eating more. Eating food like this picture is really satisfying and super healthy for you.

      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!!

      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! 😞
