close to goal ??



Recommended Posts

Im just wondering how many else out there are close to their goal weight and struggling hard to get those last few pounds off ? I have about 7 more pounds to go and I exercise my a$$ off and I eat very good, and also I am filled FULL. Anyone else like that ?

I've got about 10kg to go to my first goal of 75kg, I'd really love to be 70. At the moment I'm not struggling to lose, well, its slow compared to some others, about 3 or 4lb per month but to me that's healthy and realistic weight loss. I'm not fussed that it may take me another 6 months to get to my goal. I've got a fair bit left up my sleeve fill wise too - I'm at 2.5ml in a 4ml band.

I think I'm going OK because I really am putting in exercise wise, I run regularly and am training for some longer distance runs, so I get loads of slow fatburning aerobic exercise, I run for an hour at a time usually, about five times a week.

      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?
