I just wanted to share... This morning, I didn't have time to make a Protein Shake, so I picked one up at a local gas station (Sheetz). Tasted a bit chalky, but was only 14 oz and packed SO much in to SO little! For one bottle, it is 50 grams Protein, 270 cals, and only 3 grams sugar. Most of my Protein Shakes leave me hungry by this time, but I am still SO full and drank the shake at 7am! I'm excited. As much as I didn't enjoy the flavor, In probably going to look in to ordering a case of these online.

My bloodwork came back today. It's all really good, except the Vitamin B12 is high. Any thoughts?

Mine was high this last time. Because of the irreversible damage B deficiency can cause I have a fear of not getting enough so I've been taking 3000 a day instead of the recommended 500. Too much B won't hurt you. It's harmless, unlike some Vitamins which can cause problems (according to my nut). My doc suggested taking it every other day instead of every day.

thnaks for the suggestion. I will most likely hear from my doctor today. I just saw results online last night.

      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... :(
