I'm so disappointed in myself. Every single month I fail miserably when it comes to that 'time' of the month. I download more carbs than iTunes downloads music! I still eat in small portions but I crave them terribly and can't seem to get it under control. I'm still losing, but I know if I don't get this resolved, having 75% of my stomach removed will have been done for nothing. Any suggestions?

Angel I eat whatever I want. Just a few bites. Maybe try that?

Have not have surgery, but three thoughts. 1. you are controlling the amounts and that is an improvement 2. try and find some healthier carbs, that might satisfy the craving. (not sure how healthy, but my doctor said he was ok with sugar free chocolate pudding. I like the dark chocolate, it is not so sweet.)

3. Don't beat yourself up. that is a cycle that sets you up for failure. Here is a link to an article on a good website for post bariatric patients.

      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! 😞
