I lost 5lbs from last week. They said I'm losing weight like a 500lb patient would. They started me on 1% milk and unsweetened apple sauce to slow me down last week. Heck, I feel really well and thought it was normal. Since Dec 23rd I have lost 24lbs and 10lbs since Jan 5th

She did say they may have to change up things on my next visit if it continues

Good morning everyone. I'm so excited I just hit my first 20 lb loss! This has been the best decision I have ever made. I want to live long and be the best Nana to my grand babies for many years to come.

Hey all...I'm really struggling. I was gone for 8 days...I barely ate or drank. I know I'm not getting my Water in. I feel lousy and my legs are swelling again. One of my incisions has gotten infected and is not healing. I'm just a mess. I haven't lost any weight for 2 weeks I think. Which is ok but my abdomen is bloated out like it was before surgery. Why can't I ever win.

      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! 😞
