Great Job Leslie!! Gotta love a 6 lb loss. :thumbup: And you too epm316! I re-added your loss as it got lost along the way.

And welcome to our new joiner jrob281. I added you back in too. Hopefully nobody else's changes got dropped along the way. If so, feel free to re-update... it happens sometimes accidentally. :tt2:

Another 1.5 lbs down. Of course I can blame it on all the dancing I did last night (big work party). Hopefully I can keep it off over the weekend.

Well, LJM we are going to need a new one already in about four weeks so it's not that far off when we will need a new one started. Everyone's welcome of course! :w00t:

As for me, I won't be posting any updates for awhile. I'm dealing with Water issues since I have finally given up my LAST high blood pressure pill. Sad for the scale, but happy for so many more reasons!

Oh, me too! I loved it so much I was taking it for two months more than I was told to. I was honestly supposed to stop taking it after surgery because my surgeon doesn't like his patients taking them at all. He worries about our Water intake.

I used to take two a day. I then cut it to one, and did deal with a little bit of water retention, but with me finally cutting out this last one, I gained nine pounds in about four days. :w00t:

Thankfully the worst is over because I lost three of those pounds overnight.

Ok, I never do this, but I am going to readjust my goal. My weightloss has slowed significantly, and to think I could lose 19 pounds in the next month is a little extreme.

Also, I am down 2 pounds this morning!! WOOHOO!!

So, here is my update, and my adjustment of my goal. Still a stretch, but I hink it is achievable.

      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! 😞

      Iʻm roughly 6 weeks post-op this morning and have begun to feel like a normal human, with a normal human body again. I started introducing solid foods and pill forms of medications/supplements a couple of weeks ago and it's really amazing to eat meals with my family again, despite the fact that my portions are so much smaller than theirs. 
      I live on the island of Oʻahu and spend a lot of time in the water- for exercise, for play,  and for spiritual & mental health. The day I had my month out appointment with my surgeon, I packed all my gear in my truck, anticipating his permission to get back in the ocean. The minute I walked out of that hospital I drove straight to the shore and got in that water. Hallelujah! My appointment was at 10 am. I didn't get home until after 5 pm. 
      I'm down 31 pounds since the day of surgery and 47 since my pre-op diet began, with that typical week long stall occurring at three weeks. I'm really starting to see some changes lately- some of my clothing is too big, some fits again. The most drastic changes I notice however are in my face. I've also noticed my endurance and flexibility increasing. I was really starting to be held up physically, and I'm so grateful that I'm seeing that turn around in such short order. 
      My general disposition lately is hopeful and motivated. The only thing that bugs me on a daily basis still is the way those supplements make my house smell. So stink! But I just bought a smell proof bag online that other people use to put their pot in. My house doesn't stink anymore.

      Oh yeah, something I wanted to rant about, a billing dispute that cropped up 3 months ago.
      Surgery was in August of 2023. A bill shows up for over $7,000 in January. WTF? I asks myself. I know that I jumped through all of the insurance hoops and verified this and triple checked that, as did the surgeon's office. All was set, and I paid all of the known costs before surgery.
      A looong story short, is that an assistant surgeon that was in the process of accepting money from my insurance company touched me while I was under anesthesia. That is what the bill was for. But hey, guess what? Some federal legislation was enacted last year to help patients out when they cannot consent to being touched by someone out of their insurance network. These types of bills fall under something called, "surprise billing," and you don't have to put up with it.
      https://www.cms.gov/nosurprises
      I had to make a lot of phone calls to both the surgeon's office and the insurance company and explain my rights and what the maximum out of pocket costs were that I could be liable for. Also had to remind them that it isn't my place to be taking care of all of this and that I was going to escalate things if they could not play nice with one another.
      Quick ending is that I don't have to pay that $7,000+. Advocate, advocate, advocate for yourself no matter how long it takes and learn more about this law if you are ever hit with a surprise bill.
