Scale Didn't Read 199 This Morning :-(



Recommended Posts

But it did read 198.8! :-)

I completely skipped over 199. It almost seems anti-climatic. Lol. Very happy with my band. I've lost ~75 lbs in a lil less than 8 months. I have about that much more to lose since I'm short to reach a good BMI.

Good luck to you on your journey!

That's terrific Tara. It seems anti-climatic because you still have a ways to go. I'm in the same boat as you. I got to onederland back in mid June and while happy about it, felt the same way. OK, I made it but still have another 50 lbs. to go. I'm now down another 13 lbs. and have just purchased slacks in a size 16. I haven't been in a 16 in like forever and fitting into those slacks was a fabulous moment. So...the number is just that...a number. But it is a great milestone in your journey and one you should be so very proud of.

Anti-climatic? If I was you, I'd go out "shopping" and take a pair of pants & a shirt in the size you started off on and stand in front of that mirror in the fitting room and give yourself a fanfare, because what you've accomplished is FANTASTIC (I know you already know this, I'm just saying). Even if you have some old, big-size clothes, don't use THOSE, go to a store and say to yourself: "this is what I would be buying if I had not reach where I am today".... I bet that would be an reason for celebration!!

I think I just wanted to see 199 so bad I didn't know how to process 198. It just didn't make sense. Lol.

I did dig out some 16W and they fit. So I'm quit happy with the 198.

      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?
