What stage are you at in the process? Are you looking for someone who has been there done that or who is going through this and is at the same point you are at? Share a little bit about what you're looking for. There are a lot of members here and you might find the perfect buddy to pair up with, or lots of new friends. :-)

I had the sleeve done 9 days ago. So far, so good!

Like the others have said, everyone is here to help one another. We can all understand what each other has gone through, something most do not. I am available help if you need me. I am only 5 months out but spend 1 year to the date to get to my surgery. Personal message me whenever you like.

Thank you all for your responses. On August 15th I'll be 6 months gastritis bypass. I'm down 59 lbs, I'm under 200 lbs for the 1st time in probably 7 or 8 years. I limit myself on what I eat cause I don't like veggies, I really really wish I did, but I don't. I'm also limited on nut and foods with seeds be a use I've had diverticulitis in the past. I eat a lot of the same foods, such as yogurt and cheese. I know I need to start to expand but for some reason, I don't want to eat that many things. Then I have the awesomeness of PMS which was bad prior to surgery and just as bad after surgery. I was recent put on Paxil by my physician, the stress between my job and the wanting to crawl out of my skin due to PMS takes its toll. Does anyone have any of these issues? I am grateful for how far I've come and yet I feel stuck.

      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! 😞
