Great loss. I am same height - not sure your age - I am in the early 60s. HW 320, will be undergoing VSG coming Monday - most likely SW=300. Question: How much did you lose in the first 6 to 8 weeks?

Any post-op issues, suggestions?

Thanks. I lost around 40 more pounds by 8 weeks. No postop issues. Best suggestions i can give are be sure to get your protein/water in and be as active a possible...even if it's only walking keep moving. Good luck!

      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! 😞
