I had my surgery last Wednesday and today I decided to step on the scale...well...I am down 10 lbs. How is that even possible? I can't believe this is right.

Don't get me wrong..I am happy, but it seems too much for only 4 days post op.

Most people hold the weight the first week but I was like you.

I lost 30 lbs. the first month and have stalled the last couple weeks. (Well lost like 3 or 4 lbs.)

It is possible. I lost 15 pounds the first week and 10 pounds the next week.

I gained 10lbs in the hospital and this morning I had lost the 10 plus 3 more lbs (2days later). I guess we are all doing great..

Makes you think your scale is broken doesn't it. I remember I was scared that it was too easy.

      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.
