I was just about to unsubscribe from the emails, but saw that there is a local group coming to my neck of the woods. (Insert shock face here.) I had my surgery 6 years ago and really got down to a good weight. When I moved here 3 years ago I had an issue and ended up getting all my Fluid out. Partly my fault since I felt I had managed so well. My weight has inched back up. :-( I went to a doctor recently for fills, saw him for 4 months and got two of the tiniest fills ever before he closed up his practice and sent me a bill. It was such a waste not to mention discouraging. Now I'm over it though and am seriously considering going to another doctor and would love to see who in the area is recommended and join your group.

Would love to attend the group as well. I had my sleeve a little over 2 years ago, lost about 120lbs. and was doing great til a took a new and stressful job about a year ago and put on 30lbs. I have taken off about 23lbs of that now and still working at it but could use the support. Look forward to seeing all of you.

I am putting it on my calendar. My oldest son leaves for a year of studying abroad on the 18th, and this will be a great distraction. :)

I am one year post op this month! Excited to go to the doctor on Monday. I don't feel like I have lost as much as some others, but I try really hard not to compare myself.

      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.

        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
