I am staying as strong as possible. One thing that has given me a big boost....I put on my wedding rings today. I have not been able to wear them in a long time. ;) It's the small things that count right now.

I had my surgery on the 11th and today the 14th I am back to work!! The post-op diet isn't all that bad!! I see food everywhere I turn and it takes a lot of will power not pick a chip out of my daughter's hand and eat it, but I just go grab a popcicle and eat that instead!! I get full and the urge to eat anything else goes away!! But hang in there, if I can do it, you can do it!! I have no will power whatsoever, but I am not going through this just to throw it all away!!

I had surgery in Oct 4th. I did a liquid diet for one week prior. I am finishing up my full liquid diet. At 2 wks. I can start 2 wks of puréed food. From everything I have seen we all have to slowly graduate to Whole Foods so we don't tear up our stomach & let it heal well. It's like everything else, we get what we put into it. I think the pain from over doing it will be a great motivator. Best of luck to all of you!

I had surgery Oct 10. Today is the 1st day I feel better. I am really wanting to eat some solid food. I did a 2 week full liquid diet before surgery. I am struggling today.

I had my surgery on the 10th as well. Today is the also the day I feel some what normal. I will be on Clear Liquids till Monday... I see my surgeon and NUT for my one week post op.

The best advise I can give is take baby steps and sip all day long if you have to. It has been a physiological struggle for me as well. I had to remind myself constantly why I went through this. So please stay positive

Katoya34, just a suggestion about the Protein. I have been drinking Protein shakes every day & have not had a problem with keeping the grams up. I have been using Six Star whey Protein mix, vanilla flavored. One scoop in some milk gives me 30 grams/ day. I am drinking 2 a day now. Just an idea, of coarse u should check with your nutritionist or doctor if it's not on your list. I buy mine at Walmart.

I had my surgery on the 5th. I felt ok physically, but emotionally I was a mess for a few days. I didn't realize how much i depended on food to take away feelings. When I finally surrendered I felt better. I still get hungry, but I am trying to figure out ways to satisfy my hunger. I'm not going to lie...this,was very hard for me. I'll be off full liquid on Wednesday. Can't wait to have some scrambled eggs and oatmeal

      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.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      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?

      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! 😞

        I may have to have gall bladder surgery during my weight loss surgery. Not thrilled about it either but do not want 2 recovery times. Just want it over with.

        Thanks for your post. I may need to rethink my decision... :(
