My Mom is flying in from Michigan. I haven't seen her since the weight loss. I don't know why but I'm a little bit nervous. :) the last time she saw me I weighed more than 100 lbs more than I do right now. It's crazy!!

I think it makes sense to be a little nervous. Seeing someone you care about for the first time after losing a lot of weight is a big deal. You should be proud of yourself nevertheless and I imagine your mom will feel proud of you as well.

I bet your mom will be absolutely thrilled! You're probably nervous because you love your mom and what she thinks has high value to you. I bet she is going to be so happy for and proud of you!

I know my mom was so worried about my future as an obese person. She worried about my happiness, my quality of life, and the health problems I was likely to develop as a result of it all. She has told me she is so happy and worries a lot less!

Mom's are great. Enjoy your time with her!!

I felt that way the first time I saw my parents after surgery. I was excited and down about 50 lbs. They were very complimentary and then my mom said that now I could stop losing weight. She says that everytime she see me now. it's kind of hilarious.

Oh wow! How exciting. I know that she will be proud and excited for you! Especially the fact that you are a healthier (probably more self confident) woman! Have a great visit!!!

      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! 😞
