I'm very late to the party here, but I was 35 years old when I start the whole process. I'm 44 now. My highest weight was 320 and I've been maintaining between 160-165, so I'm at about half my body weight. I had RNY gastric bypass surgery and it was the BEST decision I ever made. :)

58. 250. 70.

Met my initial goal today -- it hasn't been all that hard and I'm quite happy. My surgeon wants me to lose another 20 which puts me where I was when I was in college. That seems unrealistic/unbelievable to me! So I'm setting my next goal to lose 10 more, then 5 more, and we'll see what my body tells me in the end. I'm not going to stress out over the number. If I can make it all the way to that 90 pound loss then great. If I stop here I'm still happy (but I don't intend to stop!).

I feel like a normal person again.

      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! 😞
