Sorry if someone has already posted about this. But I am into my week 3. I hear that it is a spot where people stall or can be a hard week. I decided not to jump on the scale to not discourage myself. And really focusing on Water intake. But did anyone experience hunger during this week? All of a sudden today I am hungry and craving foods. This is the first time I have really felt like this since surgery. Just wondering how week 3 went for everyone else.

21 days here. I only weigh once a week. It would be impossible for someone who weighs as much as I do NOT to lose FAT on under 700 calories a day no matter what the scale says.

I'm not hungry but today was my first day back at work so I did want to stuff my face a few times. We had a mortality and morbidity conference my first day back. Catered, which in this case was ironic, since the pt was over 600 pounds. I had 1/4 cup unshelled pistachios (took forever to chew to mush) and a bottle of diet snapple but there was Danish..poppyseed AND cheese....

Home now and back to for ing myself to suck down my current favorite th I g... 8oz of 1% milk with a scoop of unflavored Protein powder.

So... the huge hunger I felt probably conditioning. I don't like not getting what I want the second I want it...OH DEAR! That might be why I am fat.

      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?

      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! 😞

        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... :(
