Making Progress



Recommended Posts

Well its been since 8/12/03 and I have dropped 13 lbs with my main problem being sticking to a diet correctly. I still eat way less but can eat anything I've tried so far. The weights coming off though so I guess all goes well for now. Scars healing nicely also.

Got lots of info here and will answer questions as I learn answers myself......:rolleyes:

Awesome, Bobby! Doesn't it feel good to see the pounds go!:rolleyes:

Speaking of scars, I am using a silicone gel and it seems to reapir the scars. (Started using it about 3 weeks after the bandages came off.) I was using Vitamin E but because of varying theories I checked out the silicone.

What about everyone else? What are you using on your scars if anything?

Great job, Bobby!! Once you get your first fill, you'll notice a difference in your eating. Try your best to stick to your surgeon's recommended diet til then. :-)

      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! 😞
