So I posted on twitter that I'm getting sleeved in September and how I totally admire him for speaking out about wls and the sleeve! He wrote back! I felt like a giddy school girl lol

Ha! I wonder if he actually eats the bites on Master Chef or if he spits it out (off camera). He looks great!

I wondered about that...it looks like he takes very tiny bites though and swallows it. I've heard chewing and spitting is horrible for you! He looks amazing...and for him to write back! OMG it's so cool!

Awesome. My husband and I watch him and I go wow that's a big bite he is taking. I did read that he did well with taping and did not get sick from trying any of the food. He looks great and it gives me hope that I can do this also.

Oh, he was sleeved, not sure why I thought he had lap band. Either way he looks amazing! I've always liked him he always seems so down to Earth, and the fact that he replied to you proves how nice he really is. Congrats

I think he's an amazing chef, but now that he is standing up against those that say surgery is the easy way out, I love the guy even more! Lol!

Graham Elliot looks Marvelous.. He said in an article I saw that he was concerned with being able to raise his children. I thought he had lapband not sure I guess I can look it up.. but, whatever WLS he had it raises awareness to everyday people who have obesity issues. I wondered about him eating all that food too but from the looks of him it's not hurting him.

I adore Graham Elliot and I think he is a great role model for WLS. I think it is so cool that he replied! I am currently watching Master Chef and I think he is amazing.

@@auntiemel Thanks for posting the article. Just don't read the comments unless you want to get irritated - there are some reallly narrow minded people out there. (SMH)

He def had the sleeve, I've seen it written in a couple of different articles. He talked about how his doc specifically said the sleeve would be best for him considering his profession as a chef and the need to be able to eat or taste anything.

      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! 😞
