Surgery Dec 5, 2013

I just started mushy foods last Friday and it feels great to actually chew! Doing great getting Water and liquids in but struggling to get the 80 grams of Protein in. Trying to add unflavored Protein powder to my foods and drinks. Feel great!

I feel like my energy level is higher, I'm gaining confidence, just got an amazing job offer at my dream company so I can leave my super stressful current job, I love being able to exercise without pain, put my shoes on easier, I had serious knee issues and the 40 lbs I lost has greatly lessened my knee pain. I don't feel deprived, I feel very satisfied and no hunger. I only wish I did this years ago!

Congrats on your success so far! ...and grats on the job offer! It feels really good to work at a nice company. I think I would have struggled with WLS working at my previous job due to the stress, environment etc...

      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?

      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! 😞
