I think I've lost at least 20 lbs if not more. I'm avoiding the scales cause I just (barely) want to find out at pre surgery weigh in.

Honestly as far as numbers go I could care less. I've heard so many people whisper their weight in hushed tones and others proud that "they've been 12 stone all their life" I'm not doing this for numbers. I'm doing this so that I can tie my shoelaces without getting out of breath. So I can fit in an airplane seat beside a stranger and not obsess whether they are gonna be dissing me to their family/friends as the fat bloater in the seat beside em.

The reasons are multitude, but I honestly have never cared much about the numbers and hope I never will.

Let's cut ourselves free of the bathroom shackle.... sorry i mean scales folks. If we make the right choices and do so consistently then the numbers don't and won't ever matter again.

FYI I didn't even weigh myself on first day of liver shrinking.

Peace out

      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! 😞
