I completely changed my relationship with food and I mean completely. I now eat a high Protein, low carb, low sugar diet. I rarely eat take away and never eat complex carbs, just real ones.

I'm not a huge fan of Protein shakes so the only supplement I use is Protein powder in Protein balls I make myself and eat for Breakfast. All my other protein comes from food. cheese, beef Jerky, salami, beef, chicken, yoghurt, milk (usually with coffee). And I usually eat 70-90 grams of protein a day.

I still track everything I eat, even if it's not such a good choice. Which I think keeps me accountable. I also joined a gym about 2 months ago and go 3 times a week and play sport 1-2 a week.

On the days I don't really feel like eating I make myself and on the days I feel like eating everything I try to exercise self control.

I remember thinking on the day of my surgery, this is going to take forever, but I'm really blown away by how quickly the time had gone by. It's hard at first, but hang in there. It's worth every hard moment and struggle [emoji4]

      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... :(
