4 months out & no regrets ... Well maybe just one small one :)



Recommended Posts

I am just over 4 months out and I am so glad I decided to do this! I only have one regret and that is that I did not opt for the surgery sooner! I am sure many feel the same.

My starting weight was 333 lbs, 328 at date of surgery, and I am now down to 275! I may be somewhat of a slow looser, but I am pleased with my progress. I am no longer taking any blood pressure or cholesterol meds and I feel fantastic!

I am attaching two pics, one the day I meet with the nutritionist one month before surgery when I was at my highest weight of 333. The second was two weeks ago when I was at 279.

Thanks! Keep going, you will notice little changes here & there, but for me it really didn't sink in until I saw these pics together.

This forum has really helped me a lot .... It has some great resources and good tips too!

      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.
