Nearly A Year And Fabulous!



Recommended Posts

This is a miracle! I've never felt better in my life. Even when I lost 110 (and gained it back) I don't remember feeling this good. No more metabolic syndrome, no more apnea, no pains in my feet or ankles, my knees are fine. Feeling deprived was my big thing in the past, cheated often, could hardly wait to eat again.

Not this time. No beers or sodas -- I miss the occaisional beer, but not that much. I rarely eat bread unless it's fabulous, famous, or absolutely unavoidable. No Pasta, not even the good-for-you kind. I love both bread and pasta, but I don't feel deprived. I think the reason is because it's my choice, not a program requirement. I'm the one who's in charge.

Here I am now, down 5 sizes and below what I thought was my goal and still drifting downward. Un believeable.

Sooo encouraging and inspiring!! I'm 5 weeks post op and have felt like I'm going to be the one who gets the surgery but doesn't lose the weight even though I haven't had a major stall yet!! I hope I'll be the one saying this a year from now!!

Thank you do much for the post!

Fantastic! Good for you! Glad you did it without feeling deprived, too. That can make the journey a whole lot easier.

Keep the positive lights shining.

I agree -- How encouraging! I'm happy for you! :wub: Thank you for sharing!

I am also 5 weeks post-op. I have been at 182 lbs for the past 3 weeks. Definitely losing inches though!

I hope I can say that I am at goal, or below goal a year from now, God willing!

      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?
