google Dr Matthew Weiner he has a video that tells you the progression of how much food you will be able to eat over a period of a year. Please follow your food plan so you staple line has time to heal properly and you don't hurt yourself. I am not sure how much teaching the dr did with you but make sure you follow the Vitamin requirements or you can end up with medical issues.

Thank you, I just googled and bookmarked some of his videos. Will watch it tonight. My doctor gave me good amount of Vitamin supplements, I'm taking 3 times a day.

That is a tough question you posed for me, my significant other is everything of an opposite to me, South African, blue eyed, blonde hottie, she is very fit and active, so she has been with me through my journey, I did this primarily for me, I wanted more time and activities with my family, in fact my wife is a lot more cautious and stressed about this than I am, as I said in the previous post, if they are your friends you have no reason to hire anything, I would think more so with a potential future significant other, it's easy to be accepted because of image, but even sweeter to have acceptance because of perception! Don't ever be ashamed of what you did, and I can't agree that it was your fault but I respect that you do, the medical system is set up as such here, informed consent is very important, if your friend turns on a light switch and it sparks but he doesn't say anything to you then you go to turn on the light and shock yourself who was at fault? Go forward !

      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! 😞
