I'm not religious but I appreciate those who are. He does not hate you, maybe he's testing your will? Time to prove that you can do it, not only to him but yourself as well.

Dont count lbs day to day. Your six days post op which means youre probably swollen, bloated, and still retaining Water from the anesthesia and countless IVs. Count week to week. So what if you "only" lost 3lbs in a week. Keep that up and a year from now you could lose 150lbs+ (I don't know how much you have to lose but regardless, those are some pretty good #s right there)

Keep following the plan and it will come off, I promise!

Take a deep breath. Most people gain weight in the hospital because of all the fluids. Your body is healing, the stomach us in chaos. You will be fine. Give it a week. And by the way God loves you as he does all of us on this journey.

You may have gained weight in the hospital. I gained 3 pounds from admitting to just as soon as I got home.

Remember or please note. God made your body to heal itself. It goes into survival mode the instant things start changing. From food intake to surgery. So no God don't hate you on the contrary He loves you more than you could ever know.... and He's right there with you. So keep your smile and know that your body is some what like a navigation system. It will recalculate as soon as it realize it's not in trouble, and the weight will drop off.[emoji1]

The first week I barely lost:( the second week I lost and then after that it has been a bit of a roller coaster. However, in eating right and working out so I have made a COMMITMENT to TRUST THE PROCESS and lovingly encourage you to do the same[emoji4] I thought I would be down more but will take this as I'm sharing to encourage you (HW 215 SW 192 and looking forward to GW 135:)
Never forget God loves you and is protecting your body and you every step of this journey and your life[emoji120]?

      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! 😞
