Hello My June 14th Friends.

Here is my update. Other then being tired all the time, everything is going well. I'm in step 3 of my diet plan as of Saturday. All I can say about food is that I'm thankful for more food options. Does anyone else feel like a baby trying food for the first time? I find it interesting that I have to eat something and do the wait and see game to see how my body handles it.

Since surgery, I have lost 18 ponds. The last few days, my weight has stayed the same. I figured between all the weight I lost pre and post surgery (47 in all over since last May) my body needed a chance to adjust to all the changes.

I hope everyone is doing well.

Please update the group with your progress when you get a chance.

hi. congrats. my surgery was the 9th. i've lost 32 pounds (including pre op diet and post op). i hit my first plateau last week (3rd week post op) and it lasted a week, and i've lost two pounds since then. i have heard a little plateau is common 3rd week, so just keep faith in the process if you hit one soon. i like trying different foods now to see if my body can handle it. so far so good. still not up to 60 g Protein a day yet. can get about 40 balancing Fluid needs and how full am with 1 oz meat or cheese for protein meals.

Hi guys! I have been on soft foods since week 2. I feel pretty good. I lost 18 pounds since surgery but last week the scale did seem to be stuck. I left Friday for a trip to California. So far it's been ok. A little hard to get Water in. I have been staying with my sister in law but tonight we check into a hotel for the 4th. I'm pretty nervous about food. I did bring some lentils from home to eat but not sure if the hotel has a microwave available. Oh well, cottage cheese and yogurt will keep in the fridge, right.

Well the first week I ate absolutely nothing and I didn't drink either ... I lost alot of muscle.. But now I'm drinking alot and eating my mushies and soups.. Today is my first day drinking protien shakes so maybe it's the more Fluid intake? Ugh this sucks

      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!!

        So proud of you Cat. Getting into those smaller size clothes is half the fun isn't it?. Keep up the good work!!!!

      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?

      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! 😞

        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... :(
