I can tell you this, it's gotta be a collective effort between you and the team you are working with.. Its a hard struggle!!!! Yes it is!!! But you have to want and need this for you. I struggled hard within MYSELF not with the decision of having my surgery. food was my friend whether I was feeling happy or sad. It didn't give me negative talk or tell me what I was doing or not doing wrong or right. Food was my go to. And I had to realize and still have to realize that I can't let it control me!!! I've developed reading and journaling as a go to when I want food. It helps or try a game on your phone. I push myself daily to think positive!!! It gets BETTER I SWEAR IT DOES!!!!

You have to have control over it!!! I've also been taking 5-htp to help with my emotions and feelings. Ask your doctor about it

So glad to hear this.

Would you be willing to share any of the tips or insights you received from your surgeon or NUT? You obviously don't have to if its too private, but if you are open to the idea, it might help someone else who is struggling.

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.

      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.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...
