different for me when i stall out i up my carbs and the scale moves again then i up my Protein. i think everybody body different my sister can eat carbs all day never gain any weight eat too much meat and she gains weight. everybody says high fat but not for me even if all i eat is protien and fat i still stall so.i will always have faith in the calorie in vs calories out math. i never debate with anyone about this thing because i know what works for me and just keep tweaking it to find what works for you in the end. glad the scale moved!

The same for me. When I take in a low amount of carbs I stall and on top of that I don't have enough energy for my workouts which are pretty intense. All the times that I've lost weight in the past I never limited my carbs to a super low amount and I always had energy for workouts, which I have a history of doing plenty two-a-days a couple times a week. When I tried 30g or less i felt lightheaded a lot and even blacked out once in the shower after coming from the gym. Scary. I have up my carbs some and am doing wonderful on my progress. I actually just did a 10K at the track this morning in 1hr 20 min. Whew!!! I'm pooped! (but very proud) I am looking to decrease that time by my first 10K on April 11.

      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?
