My 6 month surgiversary was on the 3rd but I hit the 100lb mark yesterday from my preop weight. Now, unfortunately the last 8lbs was from some serious dehydration from being sick (not surgery related) and I expect some of it to come back, but I figured I'm sick and miserable so I might as well Celebrate what I can. I'm down from a 24 bottom 3x top to a 14 and L tops. I actually bought my first medium at old navy last night!

At this point I have no regrets. This has been the best thing I've ever done for myself.

Hi, I am all for celebrating and the 100 lb mark is down right a miracle in my book. Do you have the flu? Hope you feel better soon

Congratulations!! You look great, I see you have been in a race as well. Way to grab on to your second chance. I have no regrets either. Past my 1/2 way mark, 71 lbs to go. We are so blessed to have this opportunity for a healthier life.

Thanks everyone.

I didn't have the flu. I got sick almost 3 weeks ago right after the walk I did. They thought it was a sinus infection but it turns out I actually have asthma. I've been trying so hard to work out since I fully recovered from surgery and I've been struggling with getting sick for a prolonged period twice and I just have trouble running for more than about 30 seconds at a time. Now I know why. But at least now I've got it figured out I can approach the gym knowing it's just going to take me longer than it would other people. I've just got to baby my lungs a bit.

Congrats. As a fellow asthma person I find that I can do other cardiovascular things that don't involve running. Like I can do most classes without having shortness of breath.

      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! 😞
