After my weight loss stall that seemed like forever!!!, I was happy to see that the scale started moving again . That was more annoying than getting your shirt snagged on a drawer knob.

Well I finally hit the 30 pound loss mark. Whoot!!!

I personally think that's a decent amount of weight for the amount of time since I've gotten my roux en y surgery on January 9th 2017. I do want to actually lose weight at a normal pace. Not no landslide. All in all I feel great!!!!! The incision on my right side where the biggest instrument went in still bothers me. When I stand up it feel like my insides are going to drop out. There is a lot of straining and pulling. My doctor reassured me that it is completely normal and expected. They spent a good amount of time in that area, and they had kind of a rough time with moving my muscles in that area . With these small annoyances, I would still go through with this operation again, in a heartbeat.

Every now and then I get the annoying head hunger. Luckily it passes very quickly. With the small amount of food I'm actually able to eat, I feel soo much more healthy in that aspect. I currently am not craving ANY of the crap that I used to consume. I'm just soo happy with my decision to get this done. Save some room on that losers bench please

Congratulations on your weight loss thus far. Don't worry about the amount. Generally you drop the pounds so quickly at the beginning and then it begins to tapper off. So it is natural.

Thank you! I'm not really worrying about the loss at this point. If i stall, I stall. Just as long as it happens. Haha.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞
