How much weight have you lost?



Recommended Posts

I LOVE my band... no regrets at all... it's changed my life.

I started with a 54" waist... now 32".

The band is only a "tool". You do have to work with it. If I had to do it over again I would do it again in a minute.

Feel free to email me if you have any questions or if you would like to chat on the phone I'd be happy to call you. I have free long distance.

Tom, Toronto

Banded July 6 06

I have lost 52 lbs since the beginning of my journey. 42 of those pounds were from my pre op diet until now. I was banded on October 19th, 2012

Best decision I have ever made. Would do it again in a heartbeat!

      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?
