I'm at the three month post op mark and I feel like my weight loss is at a very slow crawl! The day of surgery i weighted 226 and I am now at 180. YEAY I'm in onederland but, I feel the weight is not coming off as it should be. Is this normal? Or has the head games been getting the better of me? I know I need to be eatting more Protein I work out daily and get plenty of fluids. There are weeks where I just stay at the same weight.

Are you serious? You've lost 46 pounds in 3 months. That's 15 pounds per month. You are losing a pound every other day. How much did you typically lose in a 3 month period prior to surgery? I'm sorry, but I think this post is absolutely ignorant.

You're doing incredible.

You should be very pleased with yourself.

If you are weighing yourself everyday DO NOT do that.....

It's bad for your self image.

Your nutritionist and surgeon would say the same thing.

It's self defeating.

If you are going to weigh yourself do it once a week on the same day at the same time wearing the same clothes.

That's our lecture for today. LOL

Keep going on the path you are on and everything will be fine.

Ignore the harsh comments. Like me, you probably want your excess weight off, RIGHT NOW! Hang in there, be patient. The weight didnt add on overnight, and it will take time to come off. I just want to be sure that I keep it off! - Frank

      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! 😞
