Thanks for the update Marionb88. It really helps to hear honest struggles after surgery. Mine is scheduled for Nov 7th so I'll be right there with ya soon enough. Hope you have a quick recovery and work out all the kinks :)

Hope urs goes well too. It is hard cuz even tho I've had the surgery I still find myself wanting to eat the food I see on the TV or when the hubby and kids are eating food I can't I want it just cuz it smells good and I remember how good it was. Even tho I'm like not hungry at all. So there are times when I miss eating what my family is and I do feel a little separated from them sometimes. I know part of that is cuz I'm still on pureed foods and it might change a little once I advance in my diet. But like some things like McDonald's we probably won't enjoy together for a long long time. Lol. And I mean it's not a bad thing it just gets sad after a while knowing that food is the thing that used to comfort me. I've been finding other ways to comfort myself tho. Like preocuping my time in the gym or going for walks.

      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! 😞
