Maintaining For 10 Months



Recommended Posts

3 years ago next week I started this journey... I have no idea where the time went but I had the surgery, Paid my dues for 22 months and reached my goal last December!

The last ten months have been easier then I expected as my band is my governor! It doesn't allow me to over eat. I still do my part .. Eat small Portions, Drink Water, mentally track my calories, weigh myself daily and if I go up 3 lbs I get strict and lose it in a few days.

With my help The band has changed my life! I am a thin person for the first time in my adult life!

Hey FL, I've been wondering about you. Congratulations on your 3yr Bandiversary! You have always been an inspiration to us all. I just celebrated 1y Bandiversary on Oct 15. I have lost 102lbs and 30 lbs to go.

Really happy you stopped by.

Life got in the way… for the past few months And I just never found the time to sit down and post but I found u really missed you and a handful of others so thought I would try to get back in the habit again.

      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... :(
