I'm with you. I don't enjoy food. Well right now I don't enjoy anything due to latest surgery. But I'm sure it will turn around for us all. I just worry, or second think, about everything I put in my body.

I need to get new glasses' date=' but I was going to wait till I reached goal weight. I know from many years ago, that weight loss can improve your vision. I am 65 pounds down with about 45 pounds to go. I can deal with the ones I have. Just wondering what you guys thought. Should I wait with the thought that more weight loss could change my vision more if I get glasses now?

I hadn't heard of weight improving vision but I would welcome that change. Maybe wait for another 20 lbs? Guys lose so fast - great job on the weight loss!

I never heard that weight loss can change your vision? That one is new to me. Your face shape changing due to weight loss might make glasses fit differently, so for that reason I would wait. That's only my opinion, but great job on the weight loss! You are doing great!

Does everyone deal with nausea and vomiting on a normal basis? Im 6 weeks out, and get a little nauseous when I eat. Not every time, but maybe once a day. And vomiting, maybe 2-3 times a week. Mostly if I try something new, or eat to fast.

Do you all think this is normal?

Thanks,

E

I have found that a lot of my pouch issues were from not eating regularly. Although I don't really feel like eating, my pouch seems more settled if it has something in it versus being totally empty. Warm Decaf tea has been a great soother. I don't like things moistened I prefer most of my food dry. The differences we each experience are so amazing!

Hi, I had my op on the 17th and I'm 2 weeks in and have lost 13lb to date.I've just started eating mushy food as I call it but I was very anxious about it. I'm worried I may eat to much as not sure when I'm full.I want to lose another 56lb then prob another 14 after depending in how being so slim suits me.

Also I had a bad dinner... Wanted a burger bad... We were at ruby Tuesday and I got the kids menu mini burgers... They were delicious... I ate both but not all the bread... And 2 small forkfuls of mashed potatoes... Felt great for the first 10 mins... Then pain... And it got worse and worse for an hour until I finally felt relief... I'm assuming the bread expanded... I've had a few breaded things but that was the first actual bread that was horrible man oh man did that hurt

I use Centrum calcium and D petites. They are close to half the size of the regular centrum. I've never crushed. Well did once and it came back up.

      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?

      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! 😞

        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... :(
