I'm done...I made it



Recommended Posts

Eveda, I know exactly what you are saying about rude people, that's why I'm not telling anyone, the only ones that know are my husband and my closest girlfriend, and that's all (and I have friends and family that I'm close with too). I chose this because I don't want to hear everyone's opinions and comments, isn't it ironic how they all have opinions and are experts when it it's all about you? This is a very personal decision we have made and we need to have supportive people around us, that's why this group is the best! We're all in this together. Sometimes I think negatively self-centered opinionate people are just so miserable with themselves - you know "misery loves company". hehe!

Hey, I am fully understanding for that..however I kind of open myself to other friends...I was kind of stressed before it and I just went thru the divorce and I am pretty alone here - my family is oversees. I start talking about that between friends and guess what I really found lots of pple who accep it and wonted help! I also learn that some of my friends are just not friends fo rme anymore! so that is a good lesson. Hovewer I didt say to my boss, coworkers and not to all my family..they can be very cruel I know. But belive me I am so happy now to be banded and see the scale going down everyday that I don't care anymore about them critisizing me and I am starting to take the complements how great I am looking day by day! I went to hairdresser and make myself pretty and I am so happy to be here and be able to talk with fellow like me! I really enjoy my life now - and it is just a beggining - a week after!!!I am all excited that I can trully say that all pain I went thru its woth the feelings I have now!!!

Good luck with your band! keep me updated!

cheers,

edeva3

      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... :(
