It took me longer than I thought but I couldn't be more excited!! 2 months and 3 weeks post op and I've hit the ONEderland! Yayayayayya! Sorry just felt the need to shout it from the roof top. I've met many mini goals in the past couple months but this was my first large goal. Actually 3 large goals in one day! 50lbs down, 50 to go. I'm halfway to my ultimate goal and first time below 200 for about 5 years post-299184-1479568315241_thumb.jpg

Wow! Congrats to you! That is awesome!! I am also about 2 months and 3 weeks post-op and hit 57 pounds down as of this morning. I have 35 more pounds to go until I hit ONEderland but I know I will get there. I haven't been under 200 pounds in probably 15 years, so I can't wait! Again congrats and you are doing great!!

57lbs! That's great! What was your surgery date?

I am losing too much weight, now. Down another 25 lbs. I don't seem to care about or want food anymore, but I keep trying to eat stuff that's good for me, and some sweets, too. My sleeve just won't let me eat much at a time.

When was your surgery? Are you at your goal?

I was too heavy for twenty years, between 35 and 55 yrs old. It was tough, but do we trade one set of problems for another set? Probably so.

I am sorry to hear. However, I don't feel that way at all. I may have had a rough recovery and suffered a few complications, but at this point, I feel this is the best decision I've ever made. My willpower to diet pre surgery was shot. I never would have lost the weight if not for surgery and I would have continued to gain and gain and fall deeper into depression. My family is very superficial and focus on size and looks and you are judged if you don't "meet the criteria" I was embarrassed to even attend family functions. I haven't seen much of my family in years. So, I am gaining my confidence back and the depression and self loathing is fixing itself. It was all weight related which caused me to eat more and more crappy. So for me, this was life saving. Literally

      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! 😞
