Lol! Awesome. I'm in although my sleeve is a week away I'm always in the mood for a laugh. Most of the times my laughing is at myself..smh..but if we can't laugh at ourselves what fun is it? Have a great day everyone. Ps...the dog's look is priceless! That how my sissy dog looks at me when I'm paparazzing her XD!

good. I was getting worried. Was trying to add up in my head how many calories/carbs he would be.

Well, not food or dog related because I was just sleeved yesterday, but the surgeon, my husband I were joking about what we could tell people. The surgeon was all, "Come up with something ridiculous! OMG - I don't have any idea how I lost all this weight! I just started bathing in egg whites everyday and, bam!" Followed by a discussion of whether you could start a run on egg whites and would a legion of cranky plumbers come after

Option 2 was a rare tropical paradise. "Yes," I replied, "maybe I picked it up when I lived in Micronesia a million years ago. The lack of sun in Seattle finally killed it off, and all the weight it brought died off, too."

Not hilarious, but it lightened things up before surgery. No dogs in my house, but my cats are Siberians - even if I could get past the metric ton of fur, they have awfully big teeth and claws. OTOH, they are jumpers and have giant thighs like a rabbit. I often wonder how the breed made it through those cold Russian winters. Was cat thigh Soup a thing?post-300613-14751382626306_thumb.jpg

I was sleeved in May. I mixed a teaspoon of baby rice Cereal into my Protein shake to "thicken" it up a tiny bit. Definitely helped with fullness.

Ayah - I meant to say "parasite" instead of "paradise". Drugged up posts... I just thought it was hilarious the surgeon was coming up with such ridiculous stories. I explained I'd only told my kids (13/16) about the hernia repair part of the surgery because I hadn't wanted them to worry too much. The 13 year old loves medicine and I was all, "Hey - want to see my cool scars? Go fetch my Water..." The 16 year old has an anxiety disorder, so it's more like, "Hurry up with those dishes or I'll show you my horrifying scars!"

And yup, those are my cats wearing their best, "You look tasty," look. They keep coming to see me and walk around on my belly to make sure I'm okay They're helpful like that.

Hope you're feeling better. Animals definitely know when we're not ok. Cooper wouldn't eat while I was in the hospital and when I came home he was literally glued to my side for days.

      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! 😞
