i was banded 3/29/11 and had my fist fill about 6 weeks ago and I am down 34 pounds ... I love it. It is still a learning process on what i can eat but i think its been worth it.

I just hope my weight loss continues at this rate. Starting at 246/ Now I am 212 goal is 140

Good Job! Like Rozie.....I'm a newbie and need all of the "success" stories I can find. I can honestly say I am loving my band, even though it's early on for me. I love these forums and getting everyones input. Best to learn from the people have been through and experienced being banded on a daily basis.

      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?
