Fabulous February Post-Op's



Recommended Posts

Wow! Congrats! Presurgery I had so much fear about telling people. I didn't know how they would feel or how I would feel about sharing this. Now it seems like the farther along I am the easier it is to say "I had the surgery." Hold your chin up high and know that you are a role model to so many others!

It's just weird, covers everything from being a fat kid to an abusive marriage, not your everyday insecurities :). I'm fine. It's just, well, weird.

It's really nice we can talk our share our feelings and not be judged usually just other giving thoughts and encouragement cause were all going though same ups and downs and ways of dealing with them and try to uplift each other I guess it easier to be more open on here even thought we deal with each other almost daily no one is looking at you

Last night we had a going away dinner for my brother (leaves Tuesday for Mississippi then about 6 weeks later for another 12 month tour in Afghanistan). My brother's best friends brother's jaw literally dropped when he realized who I was (it took a bit for him to place me). He spent the entire night either staring at me or trying to get next to me to talk...he complemented me on everything from my hair to my shoes and everything in between. It was hysterical! And extremely unnerving to get that kind of attention from a guy. This is so weird :D

So my six month anniversary is approaching -August 26th. I really want to be down 82 lbs .. I know weird amount.... Id be 178 and i just want to be out of the 180s.... So I decreased my Protein and exercise last week and plan to increase protein and exercise this week. Seems like its just getting harder to loose and for some reason I'm just not craving much food..... So wish me luck! I need to focus and at the same time my daughter a yummy humming bird cake for her birthday. ( no real humming birds lol) but I remember how it tastes... I'm really proud of myself... Not one piece of cake, candy or Cookies in 6 month!

      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! 😞

        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... :(
