Amanda, you have let the sunshine of truth help you move forward. This is not going to be the easiest thing for you, but you know where you are trying to go. Don't let anything stop you! Not anything! You and I have to remember that if it required me to walk across the Death Valley in barefeet I would do it. This is nowhere close to that. So, when you (and I) are tempted to eat something that we know is not on the prescribed diet, go get on the treadmill, take a walk, call a friend, drink some Water, whatever distraction you can find! I know that you can do it! I am going to need you when mine starts on Monday (9th) to tell me everything that I am telling you now and then some.

I have some meditation tapes that I haven't touched in a year. Maybe it is time for me to pull them out and see if getting started (seriously) with meditation will help me to focus on something other than my stomach as I go through this.

I am rooting for you!

      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! 😞
