You guys are starting a great journey. Take measurements of your body as you are likely to see changes there even when you don't see them on the scales. I wish I had done this. Good luck.

I wanted to cheat tonight, but just kept feeling guilty.

It's pretty crazy how fast everything can change.

I'm moving forward! This is it!

Thank you for the support. I need it!

If you feel the need to cheat, maybe you are not ready. I never cheated because I was afraid of the 'what ifs' etc. Also, if your liver is not reduced in size they will not band you. That is another reason for the pre-op diet of liquids etc.

Good luck.

I wanted to, didn't feel like it.

And the what ifs were what made me stop.

I have to do the liquid for 5 days only so I'm good.

I've been craving a bagel all day, definitely considered eating one but decided not to and to sip on some broth instead. I'm happy that I decided not to cheat on my diet, I would have felt incredibly guilty if I had!

      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! 😞
