2 1/2 weeks post op I make 3 weeks on Thursday.. I attended the mandatory support group session yesterday .. And since the surgeons office is right next door, I got there early to stop by to get weighed. The nurses are always kind and took me back to weighin.. I'm still not able to weigh at home since my scale does not go to the 400's ..(I bought the wrong one and I refuse to take it back since I don't plan on being in the 400's for very long) anyway I was not really anticipating a big loss since my 1lb weigh in and too my surprise I lost 10lbs ????????I was so overjoyed. It was exactly the pick me up that I needed to go into this meeting. The meeting was great and I plan to go back next month. I was scolded a bit evidently I need to introduce more variety and less liquid. I have been having a hard time with dairy and have been sticking with the one thing that my pouch likes chicken breast Protein Shakes and Water ..

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      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! 😞
