Congratulations, better than I did. I have lost 21 but it includes the 2 wk preop diet. kind of hit a lull this week, haven't lost any in 4 days, but I keep hearing that it is common during the 3rd week.

This is so exciting, only 11 days out and 20 lbs!! It took me four months of intense struggle to lose that much the "old-fashioned" way. What were you eating in those 11 days that helped you so much?

Well done Lillie.... you must be so happy with that! How do you feel in general health wise - is it getting a lot easier now?

Way to go Lillie!!! I've lost 12 lbs since surgery on 5/18. How are you feeling and what phase are you on? i.e. full liquids, mushy, etc.:blush:

Sounds like we are in the same boat! I was sleeved the day after you by Dr. Nick. What are you eating these days?:blink:

That is fabulous!

I'm 5 weeks out and I've only lost 22 lbs since surgery plus the 24 I lost before surgery.

I did do measurements last night and I've lost 24.25 inches since the night before surgery.

Pretty weird.

      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?
