I would like to participate, but I have a couple of questions. Is this email exchange oriented towards bypass folks or sleevers? Or does it not matter? Also, what would be some appropriate items to put in a box? I suppose Snacks are out of the question, LOL! :)

I really don't think I will be getting a box from my pen pal this month. I have only received one email from her, fifteen days ago. She sent me a message with her mailing address, and said she was so ready to mail out my box, but I haven't heard anything from her since.

I did my part and mailed out her box 13 days ago. This is the first time I have not received anything.

I know your frustrations. My intention on starting this program was for us to help each other not take advantage of each other. I too, have been stood up a few times but I know those pen pals that I've had are very appreciative. :)

Don't give up, there are some great pen pals out there.

someone would be kind enough to let me know what they do in an instance like this. Hello there, it's been 2 weeks since my operation and today was a very difficult day. I was craving sweet stuff so badly and I just could not for the life of my change my mindset. I am a little fragile today and scared that my mind will let me down. Please if someone could advise me

      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.

        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?

      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... :(
