My first goal was to get below 253. That was the lowest i could get with diet & exercise.

My #1 goal is to get to 149 pounds, the weight I was the day I found out I was pregnant with my son. That was 6 years ago and as you can see by my ticker, I'm at 156.4 as of this morning. I want to accomplish this by April 14 which is my 31st birthday. I started at 205 on May 17, 2011, was banded on July 5, 2011, and have lost a total of 48.6 pounds since I started my lapband journey!

Good luck.

My first goal is to get to a metric two figure number... 99! I was banded last Saturday at 110 kg, I now weigh 106 kg... 7 more to go until my first goal.

Second goal is to get below 78 kg, which is the furthest I was ever able to go on my own with diet and exercise.

Third goal is... well, my 30th birthday is in September. I have to see how the band works and how much I can realistically manage before my birthday, but I definitely have a goal in mind for my birthday.

Fourth goal is 65 kg. Then I'll be at my ideal weight, 45 kg down from surgery. I don't know when I want to get there, just that I want to get there. So that's the ultimate goal.

      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?
