Hi Nolar, Yes, click on anyones ruler and it will take you to the site. Sign up, enter your weight and etc.., and save. I think it then shows you the ticker that you have chosen and saved, you copy and then go to your name at the top of the page on this site LBS and it will take you to your page, click on change profile, then change signature and all you do is Paste onto that and it should appear. Good Luck, GB :crying:

Been a while since I checked in, but thought I would share. As of today I am down to 265, a loss of 31 since surgery (May 7th), and 60 overall since December.

I've gone from a size 56 pants to a 48, and I'm looking forward to getting to a 36!

Everyone is doing so good.. It's great to see everyone progress.

I am down 1.8 lbs this week. I was hoping for more since I starved for a couple of days after the fill. That's OK, I'll take it. That puts me a 185, and moving right along.

Have a good week-end, and good luck to everyone next week.

Thanks to everyone. I have struggled in recent days with the adjustment to what I can and can not hold down. I've had a number of episodes recently where I've had PBs....you can see the countdown to launch going on inside my stomach...and the tough part...is does not stop until you are completely empty. I'm in a very high stress and highly public job so I have to be very careful about what i eat and where.....and I don't need security to scope out a location where I will be....i always know where the exits and the restrooms are whenever I have to eat somewhere :-) Keeping the faith....go get'em guys. 1 day at a time.

      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! 😞

      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.
