Grateful for this tool, especially now



Recommended Posts

I was thinking this morning. With the current Shelter in Place requirements, working from home, and having to cook most of my meals - pre surgery I would have definitely gained weight. I would have eaten my feelings and stressed, and I probably wouldn't have made it a point to walk everyday. With this surgery I am losing weight. It's not easy. I am fighting head hunger every day. And yes, I'm still stressed, but walking is not only good physically, it's good mentally - getting fresh air and sunshine.

Wishing everyone health and happiness. Stay safe and take care of yourselves!

Lori, You are so right. I was thinking the same thing. If it weren't for surgery March 12th, I'd probably be baking up a storm and eating most of it.

Best of luck to you. Stay strong and safe.

Yeah, I so hear you guys on that one. Sometimes i forget now that when I "screw up" it's not even anywhere close to what it would have been without the surgery. I sometimes think that Ive overeaten on some days and when I look at my food journal, it's just that ive eaten a small bit more. Obviously, I dont want to keep that up, but it's reasuring that my body tells me now instead if having no feelings before.

      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! 😞
