I have some on my arms, stomach and upper thighs but it is nothing compared to what i thought it would be. It has mostly bounced back. My biggest problem so far has been lack of energy. I don't get enough Protein so i am constantly tired. Also I bruise EXTREMELY easily. There are a hundred little problems but it is nothing compared to my fat problems.. if ya know what i mean. :)

No I dont think so. Maybe much later in life but right now i am pretty okay with it. Plus I don't have insurance so i paid out of pocket for my vsg. There is nothing left at all for plastic surgery

Do you by any chance have a recliner? I thought it was SO much easier to sleep there than the bed. Even the couch felt better to me than my bed because i could arrange the pillows to support me almost upright.

      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?

      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
