I went on my pre op diet July 19tj weighing in at 307. My highest way ever was the summer before at 322. My surgery was July 29th and I weighed in at 297. I was worried that I wouldn't do good with this new life.

The first couple weeks I struggled but then I started feeling better. Once the pain was gone I started loving the weight coming off. I am now a little over 4 months out and down 65#. I have had a few stalls and am in the midst of one now but I started comparing pictures because I still don't see it when I look in the mirror. Right now I only have face before amd after but later I will do whole body. I need some more motivation. :)

Honestly I just try to forget and keep eating right.. I did go off track over thanksgiving and am trying to kick the bad sugars again. Usually when I stall i just try to change up what I am eating. I usually only track when I am in a stall... usually It breaks but sometimes injust have to wait it out.. its frustrating but I know if I do the right thing it will work itself out...

Thank you all for the kind words. When I did the full body I kind of was shocked. I guess I didn't realize how big I looked or how small I have gotten.

Thanks. Coincidence actually. I took that picture then looked for a full body picture and that's what I found lol :) majes a good comparison though. Crazy that even friends and family wete in denial about how big I was.. I posted it on Facebook and got soooo many responses but most were that wasn't you. I don't remember you being that big...

      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! 😞
