I feel so bad for you. Your husband is clearly taking advantage and going over board. I personally feel that you are going to have to show him some tough love and hold him accountable for his own self and progress. I wish you the best.

Thank you. It is now six months out. He's lost 151 pounds and feels great. Comorbidities are gone. Still has a long way to go, but this week's surgery follow up made the docs quite happy.

I'd like to say things have changed between us, but they really haven't.

I've lost 66 pounds without surgery. Go figure. My arthritis hasn't improved. Such is life. I'm the little engine that keeps going forward and I strive for peace. Sometimes that means forgiving the bully and just moving on. Is it what my feminist power self would have done? Nope. But it's the only option for now.

      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! 😞
