Hi all! I started mine yesterday. I would say the worst part for me is actually the headaches versus the hunger. I think the headaches are mostly from caffeine withdrawal but I know you can also get them when you lower your caloric intake as much as we are now. One thing that I found is that when I'm having hunger and the Protein Shake and endless amounts of Water isn't doing much, I heat up some chicken or beef broth- I think the warmth helps soothe my stomach. You can do it, stay focused!

Stay busy....walks, showers, baths, naps, cleaning - stay out of the kitchen, don't watch tv with food commercials, don't drive by Lonestar Steakhouse and smell the grilling!!!!

      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! 😞
