Congratulations everyone! Those are amazing results. I'm curious about exercise. Are you guys working out, walking 30 minutes a day, hitting the eliptical. I want to have your kind of success in 3 months so i would love to know.

I was walking about 4 times per week, but haven't walked in a few weeks. I plan to start back soon. What I mostly do is eat low carb and track every single thing I eat. I ate 20 grams of carbs per day for about the first 2 months; then I started eating 30 grams per day to allow for more variety in my diet. There are days when I go over by a couple of grams, but I try to keep it at 30 or below.

Good luck to you! :)

Thank you for sharing debbie! I know exercise is important, but i suspected controlling your diet is really where the success comes from. I havent started exercising yet because i get tired really easily, but i will start even if it's only five minutes at first.

I'll keep in mind the low carbs too.

During the first 2 1/2 months I walked 2 miles 6 to 7 days a week. I haven't walked in a while and boy can I tell. I have some plans for this coming year!! :)

I napped every day for the first 2 weeks and to be honest I napped daily before surgery. I never nap now!! :)

I also started walking the day after I got home from the hospital around the cul-de-sack once then twice then to the mail box then farther each day :) I totally understand being tired.

Low carbs are the key for sure for me for sure. At 4 months out I have 1000 cals and 50 carbs a day.

      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!!

        So proud of you Cat. Getting into those smaller size clothes is half the fun isn't it?. Keep up the good work!!!!

      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... :(
