9 Months Later... Before and "After"



Recommended Posts

U look amazing I wish I will look that good at 9 months post lol! I have too much to lose to get there that quickly! Be proud U have done amazing

Thank you! It really doesn't matter how quickly you get there, slow and steady wins the race. I've been feeling great since day 1, and every day after. Just knowing that you're heading in the right direction feels awesome! I know that people get caught up in the numbers, but one of my most monumental victories happened at 3 weeks out, when my husband could finally sleep with me again because I wasn't snoring loudly enough to wake the dead! I hadn't lost that much at that point, but my health and quality of life (sleep apnea) was already improving dramatically.

That's a brilliant thing to happen, I am a single mum and my biggest thing has been I cud get into a pair of trousers i hadn't worn in 3 years I was so happy! Did u have any times where U wud put a few lbs on?? I weighed tonight and I put on 2kg yet I haven't been eating wrong or anything and I am so confused

Of course my weight has gone up at times, particularly around "that time" of the month. 3-4 pounds is not unusual, but it usually goes back down by the next week. Also, you mentioned that you weighed yourself at night... Personally, when I weigh myself at night, it's ALWAYS 3-4 pounds more than it is in the morning. I very rarely weigh myself at night, for that reason.

      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! 😞
