One week post op - belt!



Recommended Posts

This is where my belt was on December 6th, the day I started my presurgery diet, and it was tight! Now it's just hanging.

I've lost a total of 45 lbs since starting the program.

HW - 324

SW - 297

CW - 279

I think that pic was taken at 284, ~40lbs down. I'm three weeks out from my bypass surgery (12/27) and I think I'm in the middle of my three week stall. I've been stuck at 279 since 1/9.

I've heard the three week stall is pretty common so I'm not concerned..... yet :)

I really need to hide my scale though. The inches are definitely noticeable. I went from a 53" waist to 45".

I'm staying 100% compliant with the nutrition and exercise guidelines. It's actually going quite smoothly. I just can't wait to start doing real exercises. I'm only walking right now. I'm averaging about 5 miles a day. February 7th is six weeks out and I can start weight and cardio training.

      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! 😞
