I love the mini story! No. Not sleeved yet. Thursday morning. I'm ready! I totally used to tell my friends "I can eat that, I just have to wait for it to go to my lower tummy" lol.

i was the same way! Haha. By the time I got my sleeve done I was eating so much food. What's your post op diet like?

Yeah. I hit a day of "omg, I will eat my dog!" It sucked and I was a b***h all day. I even punched a wall and made my knuckles bleed. I am never violent and rarely that angry. It was awful. I am here for you friend. Just try not to punch me. :)

When u said that about your dog I laughed so hard! I kid you not, less than 10 minutes ago I looked at my shih tzu and said "Lilly, I wonder how many meals I can get outta you". She just huffed and went to sleep. If she only knew how close she was to being a rotisserie morsel....

I'll restrain myself. No punching. Promise.

Jen's is Thursday and mine is Tuesday. There are several of us right together and it really helps to have the support. Being able to get on here and have friends that actually understand what you're going through is a lifesaver.

I don't smoke. Maybe I'll learn to crochet or something.

I'm pleasantly surprised at how I am getting through it. It's day 8 for me too and tonight we had dinner at my parents. They all had hot dogs with home made chili and slaw. Yummmm. It smelled good. But I never even had a 2nd thought. I had my Soup and then Greek yogurt for desert and was satisfied. Even better I was proud that I made it through a family dinner with no issues.

I love exercising. I know that's weird but I really do. And I love my gym. I can't wait to get back. I started running over the summer and it was hard but I would like to get back at that.

Knitting or crochet would be a great distraction. My best friend and I also are re-watching desperate housewives from the beginning. It helps to sit there for an hour and not be able to get up haha.

I took colace all through my pregnancy and it helped me tremendously. Also, are you getting enough Water? I know we are on the 'quids but I have to ask. Lol.

I could probably stand to drink a bit more actual water. I drink water with my ProtiDiet concentrates and at night, b UT during the day the last week I pretty much drink Powerade or gaterade G2.

I'm sure that's the issue. You've been so good about eating no sugar and super high Protein. You just need to get through the night and give away those yogurts. You will get through this.

      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! 😞
