Funny Side-Effect to Lapband

My next door neighbor stopped by last week and took at look at my fattest dog, said he's looking a little slimmer these days! He definitely is! I eat less, he gets less from me! :confused:

LOL - my dog is losing weight too. Mostly because I no longer feel so mean about refusing to give her extra food if she's already eaten the appropriate portion! I figure if I can live on fewer calories, so can she! I will admit that I slowly reduced the amount of food she was getting so she wouldn't have to go 'cold turkey' with her portion size. I'm just a softy when it comes to my pets!

Did you all post pictures of your furry friends on that thread?

This is a funny thread. :biggrin1: We took our dog with us for the family July 4th get together and she was given the name of "furry walrus". She really looks like a walrus with legs. She is definitely over 100 lbs and we've had her on Science Diet RD (perscription food from vet) and Wellness Weight Mgmt food. If we could only get our kids to quit feeding her. :) This can be her "Before" pic. :confused:

My dad mentioned this the other day "Is SamantherSue getting surgery too?" (heh, that rhymed) So, I am excited for her to be getting out. We don't walk her enough, so I started warning her the other day "soooon, we will be outside walking and losing weight, and you will too".

Poor dog, she has gotten so used to being a couch dog, this is going to be the shock of her life.

      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?
