Just wondering how everyone was doing? I haven't been around for a while so I may have missed you and any recent topics.

I had some more fill last week and am definately feeling good restriction now. Finally I am only eating small portions and not needing anything else.

My wardrobe has suffered a major mass exodus and I am in constant rotation of 2 pair jeans, pair trackies and about 4 tops. I dont want to buy clothes, but am sick totally sick of the clothes I am wearing.

hope everyone is well and crusing along with their band.

ciao tutti

Hey Megsy, sounds like you are going great! I am almost there with my fills... Going in next Friday to get a touch more added. Sitting at 5.8ml now and have pretty good restriction, but could be better and also still needing to eat between meals.

I know how you feel with the clothes, but I love it at the same time! I bought some new jeans on the weekend, size 18 down from a 22-24 before the op. All my other jeans kept falling down or were so baggy they looked terrible!

Haven't really been noticing a massive difference on the scales, but my clothes and measurements tell a different story, so very happy with how I'm tracking at the moment.

Whereabouts in Melboune are you. I go to a monthly support group in Werribee and they always have a clothes swap. Its a good way of finding things that fit without having to fork out a fortune.

      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! 😞
