Recommended Posts

Hey All, So today is a very special day... 1 year ago today my life changed forever. Yes... It is officially my Surgery Anniversary, and with a last push over the past few days I achieved what i thought was not possible. I lost 201 lbs in 1 year! My doctor was amazed at my visit, and they are going to do an article on me :) Although i am extremely proud of the weight loss, the more important lesson that i learned is that... Anything is possible! This year, i am going to make bigger changes, and just remember when i thought that being thin was not a possibility! 58af3cb6ba5f5_PinkShirt.thumb.jpg.b74665dda551173a1690adbcbd11f578.jpg 58af3cb7ee654_redShirt.thumb.jpg.4666c54a56fa413dc9b0c9c83009c225.jpg 180.thumb.jpg.94141f4f6e8a1e9b918534ad6e06665e.jpg

What a great read.... thank you for the inspiration! The pictures are unbelievable! Definitely be proud of your self and pat yourself on the back. I am in my 3rd week post-op (surgery was 2/8/17) I am a Fitbit user and it definitely challenges me!

      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! 😞
