I’ve dropped the ball. I’m almost 4 years post op and am gaining. I’m probably up 25-30 of the 80 I’ve lost. I’m disappointed and disgusted with myself. I am here for help and support to get back on...
I had my surgery the day before you and I eat about much as you listed for your meal in one day, with maybe a cheese stick or 2 in there. I would contact your surgeon. I don't think you should be...
This is so awesome and inspirational. I had my surgery on 9/23. I lost about 11 lbs and now have not lost anything for about a week and a half. Did you experience this at all? I am down a total...

I am 4 days post op as well. I am so glad to know I am not the only one feeling this way. I can barely eat ANYTHING and just got up from a 2 hour nap. Feel better.

Do you have support groups? I would consider attending these, or even downloading a free app on your phone to track your food. Make sure you do it everyday, to make yourself accountable. Such apps...
Do you have Med Mutual insurance? Was your situation similar??
Anyone out there have Med Mutual Insurance that was able to get approved for surgery? I am at the 40 BMI and "qualify," but Med Mutual requires documentation of weight for the past 2 years. One of my...
