Hi all. I am officially 8 weeks post op tomm. So my 2 month pic is one day premature , lol. I am currently 186 lbs today. Surgery was 12/5/16 and surgery weight was 219 lbs. soooo, I am currently 33 lbs down since surgery. My preop weight was 242lbs....so total weight loss since July 2016 is 56 lbs , yay. So, this is what 186 lbs looks like on me. Not perfect but I'm 36 lbs away from my goal weight of 150 lbs. I am still a work in progress but I'm proud of my progress this far.

You look GREAT! I couldn't even see a scar. I had my surgery 12/16/16 and feel like progress is SO slow; down just 20 in over 6 weeks from surgery day. Plus my scars are very visible but I know that too will take time.

Thank you so much ... but the scars are def still there... I use bio oil n it has helped fade the scars away so much... it's a Lil costly but worth it.. n at 6 weeks you are doing great with a 30 lbs loss... I used to get discouraged about the amount I lost due to so many people lose massive amount but now I focus on how my clothes are fitting which lets me know inches are flying off... so don't focus on scale too much look at yourself and see how your body is changing. Take care n good luck to you.

      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! 😞
