This is a very interesting thread! It sounds like what you want has totally changed. That is actually supported by research that shows food selection changes after vsg and Rny independent of post surgery healing restrictions. So, Hooray! I'm about a month away from my surgery date and feeling nervous so I love success stories like yours. Thanks so much for sharing AND for your transparency about how it was for you prior to surgery! Rock on!

I haven't had the surgery yet, but I can only liken these stories to when I get the flu--my cravings change. While normally, I would really like pizza, chips, wine, and whatnot, when I get the flu my cravings shift to a desire for bland oatmeal, chicken noodle Soup, and diet sprite. The other foods I would normally crave repel me a bit because they seem to lack nutrition and things (especially the wine) feel uncomfortably "rough" going down. These, of course, are the weeks where I have lost 5 lbs.

Congratulations! Awesome, inspiring story!! I am 21 days away from my surgery and starting to get jitters so posts like this help me remember that the reward is greater than the risk!

God bless you on your journey.

      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! 😞
