Gah! I am getting my Tummy Tuck today & I'm pretty nervous. I have to leave my house in like 10 minutes, but I thought I'd come let you guys know. I'll make sure to post some pictures as soon as I get them & feel like doing it haha. Wish me luck!

Congratulations, Katie. I hope all goes well. Let me know about your experiences. I will one day be looking at getting that surgery too along with an abdominal hernia repair.

Like Christasha said enjoy your youth. We are having a much harder time losing because of our age I am sure. I see the doctor tomorrow and I've lost 2 pounds in 2 months.

I'm alive! But barely. My pain meds keep giving me the worst nausea, but they said they can't give me any nausea medicine sooo.... what can you do? I can't really take any pictures right now, I do have a couple but they aren't the best. I'll upload them later. But yes, I'm alive!

This is five days post-op. I didn't take a picture all the way around but there's only about 5 inches they didn't cut. Ouch.

      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! 😞
