They are doing better than me too.. but doc says it's because my pouch is more sensitive than most since I had lap band removal a month ago

Y'all stay strong...you can & will defeat this fat...this surgery gives you more success than anything I ever dreamed. Don't get me wrong, you have to work hard (protein, ounces, exercise), but it just gives you that missing piece that we've all been searching for. It's awesome!

. Great news, glad you are doing well. From all the posts I've read, walking and raising your arms above your head seems to be everyone's suggestion for the gas.

Hmj- when is your surgery??

My surgery is February 4th. I went to see my pcp, nutrition and the psychiatrist yesterday! All went well and I'm clear for surgery. Registration on the 23rd!

I got to see my surgeon for a few mins yesterday and he remembered me and visited with me for a bit...that put me at ease a bit. :)

I just need to keep my fears in check !

Monday is coming fast! I have to check in at 11 am. This is getting so real. My mother in law will be staying with me because my husband is deployed right now but she is 3 1/3 years out from her bypass. I am sure that I'll be in good hands. Everyone is being super supportive.

      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.

      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! 😞
