Hey ya'll, new to the site. I was sleeved February 12th, 2013. Best decision of my life. Have had an easy recovery and weight loss has been steady until this past month. I'm within 10-11 pounds of my goal. (Depends on the day) I keep gaining and losing the same 2 pounds. Looking forward to getting to know everyone.

Greetings and welcome. Your success is amazing and you should be so proud of yourself. I am about a month behind you as to when I had surgery and found weight loss has slowed down so much. One thing that helped me was I read about the c25k app. There is a whole thread on it in the Fitness and Exercise forum. It is a free app that trains you from a couch potato running a 5k in 8 weeks. I recently finished the app and couldn't believe I was able to do it. I had never run before in my life. I think this change in exercise shook up my body to loose again. The other suggestion is that there is a thread called the Valentines day challenge. There is a new challenge every 6 weeks or so and a wonderful woman who started the thread keeps a spreadsheet on everyones weekly weight loss. This reporting in and accountability caused me to tighten my diet. Third thought was to watch the carbs. I know for me when my carb number creeps up the weight loss stops. I track this on myfitness pal. Hope some of these help.

Thank you for the welcome. I will have to check out the Valentines Day Challenge. I completed C25K in September and found out I don't enjoy running, lol. I just finished my 2nd week of Focus T25 and I'm hoping that will help jump start my loss.

      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! 😞
