Hello all my name is Doug Steele,

Just north of the greatest city in the world (IMO)

DETROIT!!!!

I was banded Wednesday June 18th by Dr. Hawasli (St. Johns Hospital & Medical Center)

Started at 340lbs 6-2-08 (BMI 50.1)

Started pre-surgery liquid diet 6-4-08

Surgery at 324lbs.

I Feel great!!!!!

and I won't know what I weight now because I only weight myself on Wednesdays (also my wife snaps 2 pictures (front;side) SORRY TMI)

Good luck to all

Doug

      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! 😞
