Congrats on your losses! Wow, 100 lbs. I'm stuck at 77 lbs but am so happy. Does your weight fluctuate up and down, has weight loss slowed down at all? I've been fluctuating and plus loss has slowed. Can't seem to get the last 16 lbs off. :( Once again, CONGRATS! :)

Thanks ladies!

Dorrie, you started out with leas to lose so you're closer to goal than I am!! I'm 5'5 & my weight now is some people's starting weight. I've had a couple stalls along the way, but nothing unbearably long. The loss is pretty consistent at about 15 lbs a month. I hope it continues at this rate for another 40 lbs because 175 is a number I can live with while I continue to lose slower since my Dr. Would like me to be 150 (although I don't think my husband would prefer me that small!) We all lose at different rates & most of you are building up enviable muscle mass. I need back surgery & am not exercising at all....which bums me out. Keep the positive attitude you share with us all & you'll get there!!!! Your loss is nothing to shake a stick at!!

Kayte, thank you for the feedback. You will do fine at 150 lbs and your hubby will smile ear to ear and be so proud of the hard work you've done to get this far. I am such a procrastinator at exercising so I'm not getting much in. I do walk longer distances by parking farther away from the store and my office. I just need to get into the gym and do it. Look forward to heading more about your journey. :)

      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?
