One week to go to surgery :-), first week of liquid diet done! (not easy). Heading to Cleveland Clinic on 5/14 and so ready to begin my new life. Cleveland Clinic has been phenomenal and I feel I am in good hands. I was excited to see this app available for my tablet and find others who are taking this life changing journey. Family has been very supportive and shares in the excitement.

Good for you! I'm two weeks post surgery and doing great! I lost 20 lbs on liquids presurgery and another 11 so far. Its really rewarding so far...but hard to switch to just eating untilp full and not worrying about calories. I found great Protein Shots to drink so I'm not constantly sipping shakes.That's just what works for me. pureed food is going great...I'm tolerating everything really well.Hope your surgery and recovery goes great.

Well I did it and feeling pretty good this morning, just got my first sip of Water. The toughest part was taking my first walk last night, I sat in the chair for about an hour, the worst was getting back into bed, I am only 5 ft tall lol

      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! 😞
