My surgery is scheduled for 3/2 and I have to lose 15 pounds. I downloaded the app MyFitnessPal and have been using it regularly. It's really helped! I am down 10 pounds in 7 weeks! Good luck and congrats on your approval! :-)

Thank you. I downloaded it before Christmas, I was doing really good then a few things happened to derail me. I'm trying to get back into the groove of things. Exercise is my major problem. I just can't get going with it. I've got to get it done because I don't want my surgery pushed back. Good luck to you also. My fitness pal ID is harleyamb if you want to add me. Sounds like your doing great!

My bet is you can and will loose the weight. I had to loose 30 lbs. instead of thinking about 30 lbs, I concentrated on loosing 3 lbs a week. I cut out all carbs and sugars. Started drinking 2 Protein Shakes a day and one regular meal. Did cheat a couple of days and had carbs and sweets, but would only set me back a day. I went to see my nutritionalist every 2 weeks to weigh and hold me accountable. Good luck to both of you. I don't regret one bit the surgery.

      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! 😞
