Hey everyone. I was banded n 6/20/11 and have lost 62 lbs (including my two week pre op diet). I'm happy with my band and progress, but the last two weeks I haven't dropped any weight. I eat between 600-800 cals a day ( I can't eat anymore than this) and about 60 grams of Protein a day. I drink my Water, and I will admit I don't work out as much as I should. It's starting to get a little cooler down here, so I plan on walking every night now. I just don't know what to do. I make good choices and I don't snack. I got off my period about 2 weeks ago, but I don't know why that would make me hold on to weight. Do y'all have any advice? I need help, I don't want to fail at this. Thank y'all in advance.

Your not going to fail ! you already lost a good amount of weight.

Sometimes the body will lose weight, then stop, and you will drop inches instead.

Then the weight loss picks up, and it goes back and forth.

I sure don't call that failing....

Walking is a great Idea.

Ijoined a Gym in a Physical Rehabilitation Center. So because I have some issues... It also gets me in the Pool.

Thats 3 x a week for about 2-2 1/2 hrs. Boy am I tired when I leave... But with the massage it's worth it.

Your doing fine ! :D Keep up the Good Work.

      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?
