Laura's RNY Journey; Age 31 Starting Weight 365



Recommended Posts

So, I wrote down my food Wednesday-Friday in preparation for the nutritionist. I decided today that my failure to write the other days just shows how much I need to get in check. So, I cancelled the nutritionist because they are going to say the same things they always do. BUT I have four weeks and four days until my next appointment with my surgeon. According to a chart I’ve been following I should lose up to 30 more pounds by that point. Obviously I’m not going to lose 30 pounds but I am at the minimum end of expected weight loss in a six month period for my starting weight. So, only time will tell friends. I have about four weeks and I need to get my act together! Wish me luck!

Congrats on all your weight loss!

You are doing fantastic. Concentrate on all you have accomplished. Ignore the charts that say you should weigh X amount by this date. Its the fact you are losing weight not the speed.

What chart are you going by? I have my 6 month follow up next month. Finally made it to onederland this week but barely lol. Dr goal is 180 for me. Trying to see if I can get there by then. I wasn't very good in Dec. Only lost 5lbs but that was due to my poor choices. We'll get there!

This is the chart. It’s just from some random website.

Good news. Didn’t drink any calories for three days out of the last four. Got to keep it up! At least I always get in my workouts.

My gym wants to feature me as a successful client on their website lol. To anyone out there reading this, personal training is one of the best things you can do with your body. I’ve done it multiple times and the results are phenomenal. You just get so strong and feel so healthy. Totally worth it. It helps your mood and your energy level and of course your stamina!

I know I wasn’t supposed to try but I’m waiting to see if I’m pregnant. Also, I got my bloodwork done and everything is good except my alkaline phosphates are high. I’m not sure what that means until feb. 8 when I see my surgeon.

      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!!

      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
