On Friday, when I was at my daughter's house, I was able to slide off the sofa to the floor and play with my grandchildren. I was so happy, I nearly cried. Usually I would just sit on the sofa and hold them on my lap from there. But since I have lost some significant weight due to my sleeve, I was able to crawl on my hands a knees, get into the little living room tent and play with blocks and legos and dollys. The kids are 5, 3, and 1. That was the first time the five year old has seen me off the sofa. I had to have help getting up because of othopedic issues, but boy oh boy I had fun. This sleeve has been so worth the incovenience of some lifestyle changes. I'll get over it.

      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! 😞
