Yes! I am about the same, about 7 pounds in the last 6 weeks. Do you exercise? Are you on MFP? I just went to the Dr today to review my blood workup and all is well. Stopped blood pressure and hormone meds! Down 3 sizes in pants but slow weight loss as of recent.

I was sleeve August 14th....four months today! My total weight loss has been 38 pounds. As I write this my eyes just opened wide when I did the math. The weight loss has been slow about 1-2 pounds a week to two weeks but it sure does add up. I started at 228 and down to 190, I'm 5'4 if that helps. I've also gone from a size 18/20 to a size 16 and starting to use regular XL pants from Aeropostale (the yoga pants and warm dorm pants). I was so excited to have been able to wear that type of clothing. My daughter (12 yrs old) is loving that I'm wearing smaller clothes and can't wait to go shopping together. That's a date I'm looking forward to!

I was sleeved august 6th and I am down 70lbs today! I started at 300. Today I am 230. I stalled for about 5 weeks. All of November and the last week of Oct, but lost 3 pant sizes during that time. It does seem a struggle to drop pounds now. But it is coming off slow but sure.

      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.
