Thank you so much! I am losing about three pounds a week. I have learned that if you stay away from carbs ( sounds aweful I know, but it's completely doable after surgery) eat and drink your Protein and drink your water!!! Add some good workouts, the weight WILL come off! Anyone that is about to have surgery, set realistic goals and when you hit that small goal, make another small goal! I tend to get disappointed easily and so this method worked great for me. Everyone is different too so don't compare... I seriously though I was going to be that girl that wouldn't lose anymore... that week three stall freaked me out. I mean I didn't lose a lb hat whole week and then bam! Started losing again! This surgery rocks. Just stay focused ya so worth it! Good luck to everyone we are all on this journey together

You look amazing! I'm so happy for you! I'm floored by your progress at the 2 month mark. Our stats are similar, and I intend on starting back at a running program as soon as my body tells me it's ready (I'm only 6 days post op). I'd be thrilled if my progress is anything like yours. How soon after surgery did you start running, and if you don't mind me asking, how much are you typically running and how many days a week? You go girl!!!

      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... :(
