Are there any groups in McKinney? I live in Leonard Texas and McKinney is already thirty minutes away from where I live. I'm hoping with as large as McKinney is that there is a group and I won't have to go to Plano, Frisco, or Allen which would make for an even further drive.

Or even Sherman would be ok.

Awesome! Have you had surgery yet? I'm currently on day five of my liquid diet before my sleeve surgery on 12/9.

Welcome! What does your doctor say about your progress? I know we are all different & lose at different rates, but 43 pounds in a year & a half seems excessively slow.

My nutritionist always asks if we are doing the following when we hit long stalls:

90 g Protein per day

Minimum of 64 oz water/day

No coffee

Low carbs

No more than 24g sugar/day

Consuming between 1000-1200 calories per day

      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! 😞
