I've lost 28 pds, and my biggest challenge is overcoming Christmas dinner and seeing my coworker stuff there faces with greasy oh so tasting food I was enjoying before surgery

Hey there Wendy! Ha ha! Anyone notice how the real Wendy looks like a drag queen? LOL

Anyway, I am 24 pounds down from my surgery date, down 54 pounds from my highest weight about 1 year ago. I am freaking ecstatic, even though I seem to be in a bit of a stall right now- I'm retaining SOMETHING because I gained .8 between last night and this morning. I am only able to get down about 650 calories a day, and I struggle with getting enough Protein and getting all of my fluids in. I am great about taking my Vitamins. I was supposed to have another post-op appointment today, but I had a sick kid home from school so I rescheduled for Thursday.

I hope 4 weeks out finds you all well and rockin' your sleeves!

-Kendra

Highest weight: 302

SW: 272 (12/17)

This morning: 248.8

Slatter...keep positive! Your body is still adjusting. I KNOW it's frustrating, boy do I know! But it WILL change & the weight WILL come off, hell..it HAS to...we aren't eating anything! Lol just keep doing what your doing & it will turn around soon!

Thank you!! I know it has to work as I'm eating 1/1000 of my pre op diet....but with the low weight loss and going on a two week stall its hard to not think am I going to be the only one this surgery is not going to work for LOL

I'm Dec. 18th but figured that was close enough. :-) Down 21 lbs since surgery. I was in a week stall then read a post on here that explained why drinking at least 64 oz a day was so important, so I upped my Water and lost 4 lbs in 2 days.

The only problem I had was extreme nausea during my entire 2 night hospital stay - it was awful but once home I was fine. I love, love, love my sleeve!

      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.
