I hit it! My mouth literally dropped open when I stepped on the scale...199! I admit to being an obsessive weigher (trying to work on it) and I have been watching my scale bounce all over the place these last six weeks. I didn't really think I was in a plataeu, because I have not been perfect with my diet. I have however, been exercising well. All of the sudden I had a 3 pound drop out of no-where that took me below 200 for the first time in a LOOONNNGG time. My newest band observation is that while I have certainly not been perfect with my food choices, I do eat a LOT less than I used to. For instance, I have eaten a donut (not the whole box), 2 pieces of pizza for dinner (not 5-7), french fries (steal a few from my kids - not my own size L from McDonalds). I am pretty faithful with my Protein everyday...the things I mentioned are little extras that I felt were keeping me from losing faster (I know they were!) but I just wanted to share my happiness about this goal! I am not perfect...if I were, I wouldn't need this band. I'm OK with that. I really think this is going to work for me...even though I'm not perfect!

      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.
