You look wonderful. Keep going girl. I'm seven months out too and so happy. Isn't WLS surgery just the most amazing thing. I'm loving my journey and hope that anyone who is wondering whether or not to undergo surgery just goes for it. It's the best thing that I have ever done. My fitness levels have just soared, as has my self esteem. I'm having a ball wearing clothes that are fun instead of functional and am determined to grow old disgracefully. post-266130-14632964679226_thumb.jpg post-266130-14632964859882_thumb.jpg

You look amazing. I'm getting my surgery in July and I'm really scared. I'm afraid that I may have complications with nausea and dumping syndrome and something called the "foamies". Can you tell me a little about your experience to get where you are. I can't wait to look like that!! Thanks

First of all don't think negative!!!! You got this and you're going to do wonderful. I'm so glad I did, and the joy of reviewing tons of compliments, fitting old clothes, buying new ones, and knowing you're improving your health all at the same time is everything!! Best advice I can give you is take it one day at a time, eat your Protein, drink your Water, and try not to fall into temptation. I didn't have any issues just eat slowly you're body will let you know if your choice of food is for you. Everyone is different therefore my journey will be different from yours and others.

      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!!

        So proud of you Cat. Getting into those smaller size clothes is half the fun isn't it?. Keep up the good work!!!!

      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...

      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! 😞

        I may have to have gall bladder surgery during my weight loss surgery. Not thrilled about it either but do not want 2 recovery times. Just want it over with.

        Thanks for your post. I may need to rethink my decision... :(
