Holy Cow I lost 22 pounds in 6 weeks! :)



Recommended Posts

I went in yesterday 12/30 for my second fill.

I got 1.5cc's added to me.

I originally started this journey in August weighing 478 pounds.

I weights 452 on Surgery day of 10/15.

Post surgery I weighed 437

Then for my first fill weighed 432 11/18.

Now 6 weeks later, and getting my second fill I now weigh 410!!!! 68 pounds I've lost.

Honestly, I haven't weight that little since 2004. It's just utterly mindblowing... I lifted a 70 pound bag of Ice Melt last night, and just walked around with it.

I am just amazed with my success, and just an in utter awe..

Thank you everyone for your support, and I hope as this new year comes in we all continue to see great success!!!

CONGRATS!!!

And this was during the holidays. Keep up the good work and don't get complacent. The lapband isn't doing the work. YOU are working hard and the lapband is just along to help.

What type of menue do you have and what are you doing for exercise?

Really all I have cut out is Breads and Rice, and Fast food.

Instead of eating 3 plates of dinner I'm down to a small portion, about a 3/4 - 1 cup worths.

As for Exercise, I walk at work about 15 minutes M-F, and trying to be active as much as possible but Ice and Snow has been slowing me down a ton. (Usually walk outside)

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
