Bought a new bathing suit today. The one I'd been using was falling off even with the strings drawn as tight as they'd go. Its a size large -- not 3X or 4X -- no Xs at all. I'm psyched about this as I haven't worn anything that didn't have at least one X since the early 80s.

Congratulations, CalGuy!! That's a wonderful feeling, almost like turning the clock back.

Thanks. It is a bit like turning back the clock. My face looks a lot more like it did back when I was young. Kind of wish I'd done this years ago (although I know today's surgeries are much better).

That is an awesome feeling, isnt it? I got excited last night. We were at our Friday night Bible Study at church and my pastor usually has to order me a 3x (the place that does our tshirts xs-2x are the same price. The 3x is a special order. He had to wait to put it in because of polos that needed to be ordered too. My cousin said try the 2x on. It fit! I went to my pastor and said look I dont have to get you to special order for me anymore! THAT was an awesome feeling!

      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! 😞
