Hi Sleevers, I pray we are all in good health and happy about our decision. I have lost 60 lbs since 9/21/17. I have been at a stall for several MONTHS... not weeks. I am starting to get anxious because I hope I have not hit my plateau. My goal weight is 140-145 and unable to to get a there. My job is so demanding, on the unit for 8-12 hours with very little intake non the less maintaining my Water. I try to at least take in the Protein Shakes and a few cups of water but definately not enough. My workout has gone from 10-10 to 4-10[emoji26][emoji26][emoji26][emoji26][emoji26]. I am stressed and anxious and driving my husband crazy. Someone give me some encouraging word please. Start weight 212 present weight 152. Proud if myself but....!!!!!!

Proud of yourself, "but" ..... kick that "but" out of your brain! You are only 5 pounds from your goal weight and look how much you've lost!!! Please, please, revel in your new body. Love it, enjoy it, take good care of it and those extra pounds will eventually come off if you eat right and exercise....or they may not and you will still be significantly healthier than you were a year ago. I think you are being way too hard on yourself which is your old brain trying to push you into a self defeating pattern so you will go back to the way you were. Ignore that critical but and just love yourself. You deserve it!

      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... :(
