I understand everything that you're going through. I've struggled with my weight all my life. I'm turning 30 this year and I told myself I need to make a change before I turn 30. So I'm doing it. People don't understand what we go through because they haven't been in our position. My dad doesn't agree with my surgery but he's still somewhat supportive bc he knows it's what I want. He thinks I could just lose it on my own without it but that's easier said than done. I know your struggle and I'm here for you if you need someone to talk to. Fortunately the weight loss community is an excellent support system when you don't have anyone else to turn to.

      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! 😞
