I have my surgery on July 5th and honestly all of a sudden I’m really getting nervous. Can I really accomplish this one every time I try diets noom hypnosis I fail. Trying to understand the Vitamins do I have to take 5 different ones a day or is there one kind that does it all, I’m confusing myself😞

I am in my 60s, and had been battling being overweight or obese for decades. I tried every diet known to man. With some, I'd lose up to 50 lbs (but most of the time, more like 20). It was just a matter of time before it all came back again. Over and over again - for decades. Surgery was the only thing that worked for me.

the Vitamin regimen is overwhelming at first, but it becomes old hat after awhile. I don't even think about it anymore. I'm pretty much on auto-pilot...

I was overwhelmed with the idea of supplements too but thankfully, my nutritionist gave me links to exactly what I need. I will basically take a 500mg Calcium chew three times a day, a chewable Vitamin D three times a day, a Multivitamin chew once a day, and then 1000 mg B12 once per week. I plan to take the 3 times a day ones with my "meals". Then I'll do the calcium and Vitamin d at bed time, and the B12 on Fridays. She really helped make that part of this process much easier. 😋

      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.

      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! 😞
