Just a few words of encouragement not to give up if you happen to gain weight one week...last week i gained 1 and 1/2 lb and I was so disappointed in myself, that id stuck to my healthy eating and doing everything by the book yet I'd still put weight on. I beat myself up mentally pretty bad and my first instinct was to go eat all the bad food i could find,luckily i didn't,instead i stuck to what I was doing,and in my weigh in this week I had lost 4lb! So,if you find you happen to gain at one time or another,keep going,keep doing what your doing and have faith, ????????

Keep going indeed! This can be an opportunity to stop the on- off dieting and calmly eat well and work your program for a long time... A lifetime if we are so fortunate !

That is the difference to me of WLS vs short term programs.

I did this 9 years ago to truly change my life and I'm determined to keep at it. Never perfect.

Yet nothing truly is.

Just keep trying and the months and years go by.

Maintaining and happy and healthy.

Hope we all can be

      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! 😞
