Hi all, 7 weeks out now and have lost 45lbs. I am currently on my second stall though. I have been exercising daily and eat around 700 caps. Only seem to stay the same on the scales. I have been losing inches though, on waist and chest. If I increase my Protein do U think I will start losing again? Thanks :)

I was sleeved on nov 7th. As of two weeks ago I lost 30. I made a decision to not step on the scale until my next dr appt which is next week. I have felt like I gained but maybe I'm just obsessing because now xl shirts fit me rather than 2x and I bought jeans rather than 20 an 18. I know inches are coming off but I'm feeling bloated and heavy. I made a deal with myself that I was not going to be a Slave to the scale because like all of us it took a while to get to the weight we were and its going to take a while to get to the weight we want to be. Hang in there and think positive. I know we will have stalls but our bodies will kick in especially when we are not stressed out over trying to get thin.

Hang in there !!!!

I'm also 7 weeks out and I'm into my third one. It sucks. I get 60+ grams of Protein, all my Water, and stay around 700 cals. I have gone from a 48 jean to a 40-38 and my 3xl shirts that were snug to xl. I know I'm shrinking but I have bounced between 300.4 and 302 for the last week. I just want the scale to start with a 2! I have lost 45# since surgery.

      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?
