Freedom Fighters Weekly Weigh In



Recommended Posts

all you have to do is ((weight lost / previous weight) * 100)

so 15/330*100= 4.5%

but that 2nd calculator works just as well.

Hello fellow Michigander!! :)

just tough through it. It WILL pass. For me that was breaking alot of the emotional attachment to food.. moving to foods with more substance helped greatly (mashed potatoes were a big help personally). I moved onto soft foods this week, and I am very happy with eating soft cereals, flaky fish, string cheese, etc.. It will pass.. just be tough and Know you're doing this to give yourself a better life. If you're in a pinch, post here.. there's usually someone on to give a few words of advice!

Thanks so much Joe - I appreciate the support. :)

Wow! Looks like y'all lost lots of weight. Not so much here. Last week I was at 214, today, 212.5. Makes me sad. Total weight loss so far: 21 pounds. Surgery Date: 7/7. I'm still doing all I'm supposed to be doing, but I will just keep remembering that I am healing & I must keep on keeping on.

Y'all keep up the good work!

      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!!

        So proud of you Cat. Getting into those smaller size clothes is half the fun isn't it?. Keep up the good work!!!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      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! 😞

        I may have to have gall bladder surgery during my weight loss surgery. Not thrilled about it either but do not want 2 recovery times. Just want it over with.

        Thanks for your post. I may need to rethink my decision... :(
