I agree with the above statements stay focus with your Protein, drinking Water, as well as exercise, your body has just gone through a major transformation, and your body was pump up with gas , continue to walk and just weigh yourself maybe once a week not every day. Take one day at a time and focus on making good choices , congrats to you all and welcome to the losers bench.

You should be having small meals also this will prevent your body thinking it needs to hold onto everything. Focus on your protein , water and follow your doctors advice good luck.

Stalls are normal as long as your eating right and getting in your Protein and Water and exercising the weight will come off, remember you did not gain weight over night and it will not disappear overnight, focus on one day at a time and eating healthy, although it may not seem like you are losing weight you are loosing inches which are important. Congrats on your weight lost and your choice to be healthy, put the scale away and only weight in once a week, you will have stalls throughout this process it is normal I am almost 6 month post opt and feeling great, remember also how much energy you have .

Once you see the new you trust me you will love the results, I am almost 6 months out and loving the new me everyone calls me ms skinny . Get ready to have energy like you never had before its so nice and not to mentioned the extra attention and buying clothes that you look good in.

Hi on your first visit since you didn't mention this was your seminar it depends on your doctor and program, I met my surgeon and nutrition and I had a lot of blood work done, we discuss my cormobilities why I wanted surgery, my expectations as well as what procedure would be best for me. Then all of my appointments and required test were set up. Good luck and congrats on your choice on being healthy .

Hi they put it in while your knock out and as soon as you can walk within 24 hours they removed it . congrats on your choice to being healthy and hood luck .

I'm glad your both ok now I am looking forward to loosing my weight, then maintaining my weight i Agee with the above statement you know how you look and how you feel despite if your doctor wants you to loose additional weight, I believe you and your doctor should work together , but you know what's right for you.

I agree with the above statements focus on your protein intake and water as well as walk as much as possible. The weight will come off you must remember that your body is adjusting to the new you as well congrats on your weight lost and listen to your doctor.

First congrats to you both on your choice on being healthy you are taking the steps that will help you live a healthy life.

Hi Lisa first I would like to say congrats on your choice to be healthy in regards to your questions it depends on your insurance requirements that will determine first of you are approved as well as the requirements that you will have to go through to see your requirements some insurance like mine required a 6 month process in which your weight had to be managed by your doctor and various test before I was approved my entire process took 10 months. Once you go to your first seminar this will discuss all types of surgery that is out there for you. Good luck with your choice.

I agree with the above choices that you have to do what is best for you, I could have chose both but due to the fact that I already had acid reflex I chose the RNY I am so glad that I did and y only regret is that I did not do it sooner, I am happy and feeling great if anyone had told me that I would love to exercise and become a gym bum I would said they were a liar but its true you feel so good and to see your body change right before your eyes and to be able to do things that you could not is all worth it. I have had no complications and I could have went back to work 1 week after surgery. I also like the fact that RNY their are more history regarding this surgery and it is considered the goal standard I did not want to have multiple surgery and this has been the only major surgery that have ever had, not to mention that with this surgery I stop taking all diabetic medications after the third day of surgery. Good luck you have to do what is best for you and congrats on your choice in being healthy.

I agree every day is different keep up the good work and congrats on your weight lost, I am 5 months post opt and I am learning to just stay focus on making good choices one day at a time although I have had stalls as long as I am eating right I am ok with that. Welcome to the losers bench.

Hang in their you must remember that your body had just gone through a major surgery be patient you have not gained weight overnight and you will not loose it overnight, stay focus 11 pound is a lot of weight to loose as long as you follow your doctors orders you will loose weight. I am 5 months post opt and although I have had stalls has not detered me, I stay focus hang in their.
