Head down bum up!

Just a week, you have to be happy with that.

Be as disiplined as you possibly can, and go for it.

All the best. Exciting times,

Deano

Stay hydrated. Space Protein out and drink it regularly so you dont get too hungry. Mixing a shake with skim milk adds some needed carbs if you are low on them and keeps you from getting fuzzy headed. I was doing prepared shakes and could not get enough carbs and fats. Good luck.

Thank you so much you guys. Even with my last supper of pizza and wine somehow the weight loss gods are with me and I registered a 3lb loss on the scale this morning before starting. Here's to never being this fat again!! :)

      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?
