Weight Loss

[dgraham]

My two year anniversary will be in January. I've recently hit upon a problem that I may or may not need to address.

I was 265 pounds wearing a size 36x32 pants when I had my surgery. Since June, I've dropped to 225 and 32x32 pants. I feel great. I look even bigger than before. But now you can definitely see a knot where my reservoir was implanted.

I saw Dr. Hakky last week about normal urology stuff and showed him. His response was grrr, I've only had to move three because of weight loss. Lol

So far it's not getting in the way or bothering me too badly. I can see it becoming an issue if I drop 10 more pounds though.

Has anyone else lost a significant amount of weight after surgery?

I recently started Zepbound, and have lost just a few pounds so far.
I had crept up to about 207 pounds, and am right at 200 now.
I'll be following this, as I'd love to get back down around 170 or so.

The reservoir showing is an interesting possibility.

I've been taking Rybelsus for around 3 months. Took two sabbaticals from it due to not tolerating the dose I was on. Went from about 247 down to 217. 38" waist pants to 36" currently. I'd buy 35" if they made them. Suspenders are a life saver.

I'm far from skin & bones even now. I'm 5'11" tall. I have absolutely no idea where my reservoir is placed in me. I'm thinking it is well hidden. If by chance it does make an appearance I'll be sure to post about it.

A bit odd if you think about it. So many pre implanted men worry that women might discover they have an implant. Now they'll be worrying about the reservoir showing.
