are you on solid foods yet? Dense Protein is pretty filling - way more so than stuff like cottage cheese and yogurt.

Are you eating a lot but not drinking much fluids (dehydration)? food addiction is something that mental heath specialist can help you manage. Check in with your team to see what ideas and support they can offer you.

Call your surgeons office to see if there is a medical reason that you can’t get fluids in and don’t feel surgery restriction. If food addiction is taking over seek counseling/therapy.

Make your Protein and Water intake your top priority until you can get into therapy. Did you talk about food addiction at your psych evaluation? What did he/she say?

      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! 😞
