Glad to see this thread. I am nine pounds from goal and am empty from fills for the first time. Had problems with getting way to tight after having fill for several weeks and getting unfills so thought I would give it a rest for a little while. Have been maintaining for almost a month now but will watch it very closely. I know there are a lot more of us close to goal.:lol:

I am 23 pounds from goal and it is going so slow now it may be next year before I get lol, well in my own defense I had to have surgery the other day and whenever I have any type of surgery it is like my body freaks out and I actually gained a few pounds but lost them again but it just got me back to where I was before. It got my hair to start coming out again, not as bad as before but it gives creedence to anesthesia being the cause because I am not lacking in Protein.< /p>

Wow Mandy that would suck, I didnt have to have an unfill but I will tell you that I was super tight after surgery due to swelling and still gained weight but lost it back. It has been a month or so and I am really still a little swelled, my surgery wasnt as extensive as yours but I went thru alot and went thru alot of biopsies and the swelling really does affect how tight I am. So as much as it may suck it may have been a blessing in disguise. Just food for thought.

I had to purchase some pajamas for my hospital stay. When I bought jammies for my band surgery I got XXL and they were snug. This time (2 years later) I was able to get med, and they fit, even after surgery with the swelling I have. WooHoo!! ~Mandy

Yay.

This is just what we need. I'm down inside my healthy weight range but would ideally love to lose 14lb more. My bum is still too big, lol.

      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! 😞
