Hi, I am super happy, my surgery date was September 12, so today I am celebrating my first month. My surgery date weight was 257 lb. Today I am 225 lb. A total of 32 pounds in a month. That make me so happy, the last time I was this weight was over 5 years ago. Every thing is way easier for me now, I'm not getting suffocated as I was a month ago, I am feeling wonderful. Thank you for all the support I have been getting from you guys.

I too had Surgery one month ago today. So far I think things have been going well. The only thing I can say is that I dont believe I'm having enough Protein or liquids. I try but cant seem to consume enough. I have lost a total of 31 pounds however I haven't weighed myself at all this week because I was becoming very obsessed with weighing myself sometime 3-4 times a day. So I removed the scales from my house and wont weigh myself until my check-ups.

Do you have any suggestions On how to get all your Proteins and liquids in. I'm really struggling with that. I also seem to be obsessed with string cheese lol.

But boy it does feel great to be feeling so much better in such a short period of time.

Congratulations on your success and continued success.

@viri87@Asmundson69 Congrats to both of you. Enjoy the new freedom that comes with being lighter. Pick up a 30pound weight and realize you had been carrying that 24/7. I hope you will slowly ramp up the exercise. Think about taking colder showers, and look into everything you can to make your skin as healthy and happy as possible. Look into yoga. That helped me sculpt the best bod I could get. Enjoy the process, realize as the fat goes away, a huge number of hormones dump into your blood stream, it might get a little freaky, but it will pass.

      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! 😞
