I was sleeved on Feb 18th...I lost 18lbs so far, but it seemed to have stopped. I'm doing everything I'm supposed to 500-600 cal/ day. Anyone experiencing the same thing??

Do a search for week 3 stall and you'll find that having a stall about... 3 weeks after surgery is pretty common.

Sleeved on 2/19. Lost 12lbs as of first appt. last week and 25lbs overall. Scheduled to weigh in tomorrow but am a little nervous, as I am on week 3 now.

Yep, my stall started week 3 and lasted for three weeks. It happens. Just keep following your doctor's guidelines and your body will pick up again with the weight loss. :) Stalls are for your body to catch up with everything. (It helps to keep a positive spin on them because otherwise they will drive you insane.)

This is so common that you will be laughing at yourself for ever posting this once you are a little further out. This question is asked almost daily.

      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?
