Well today is a GREAT day! The scale finally moved downward for me! Was stuck at 208-210 for weeks. Today was at 205!!!! Only six more pounds until ONDERLAND!! I'm beginning to realize that if I whine about being stuck for long enough, the scale will move! LOL. ;)

No school tomorrow in most of North Carolina! We get a couple of inches of snow and the whole place shuts down. I guess I'll be taking it easy. We haven't had a winter like this in years!

Our area had no school Monday or Tuesday due to extreme cold. It is -13 with a wind chill of -28 right now.

Well here's my update I haven't changed doctors yet but been looking around last night was a horrible night I started feeling sick and started vomiting next thing I know im puking blood and either pass out in the bathroom or fall asleep my husband found me around 4am I didn't go to the hospital because they will just say its Constipation I hate the hospital in my town and lack of doctors who know about gastric bypass

Get yourself to a teaching hospital, or at least get a second opinion. I threw up/ pooped blood, and I had an ulcer. I needed 4 units of blood.

We got here yesterday thank The Lord! Very pretty but yes the altitude is a big rough. We are all having headaches. Some nose bleeds for me and occasionally feeling like I struggle to take a full deep breath. Looking for a home. We have 10 days to get a place cause we are in temp lodging. So far so good. My husband is excited about the Mexican food! We have had any in forever and another snow storm tonight lol

It takes a couple days to a week to adjust to the higher elevation. Take it slow and don't attempt anything too strenuous till you feel better. A friend who used to live join CO told me the absolute best thing about living there is being able to eat dinner outside in the evening with no mosquitoes. Dry climate = less bugs. :-)

It took me two weeks to get used to the altitude...I agree; having no bugs is heavenly. You'll find something permanent, no worries. Boy, you've really had SO much going in. I hope things will now calm down so you can take care of yourself! Thinking of 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!!

        So proud of you Cat. Getting into those smaller size clothes is half the fun isn't it?. Keep up the good work!!!!

      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... :(
