Banded For Two Years 1/2 And Haven't Met My Goal!!!



Recommended Posts

This is why they say the band is a tool...we must work at it...I agree go back to basics....I'd do one or two days liquids...one or two mushy and soft, then solid...protein first of course

I'm six pounds away from my goal and I also feel like I'm never gonna get there. I'm down 130lbs. But need these last six off.

i was stuck for a few months also. about three weeks ago i started working out hard - cardio, weights, pilates. i think i lost about 4 pounds. i was only banded in july, 2011 so i'm not that far out. i was hoping the weight would just kind of fall off (a fantasy, i know) but now i'm realizing just how much work i have to put into this. it's been a struggle, but i had to go back to eating lots of fruits, veggies and Proteins. i have a wedding to stand up in next year and i don't want to be the biggest bridesmaid so that's what made me get my butt back into gear. my laziness wasn't solved with my surgery. it's an everyday struggle that i'm facing, but i have wonderful support at home that's willing to keep pushing me along.

      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?
