Recommended Posts

I was sleeved 11-8-12 and was 215 and I'm now 168 but I really thought I would have lost a lot more by now!!! I'm worried that my weight lose is over so was wondering if anyone else has lost this slow but still reached their goal? I seem to stall alot which is frustrating. I haven't been able to workout much because I have a bad back and I tend to not eat much during the day because I get busy with my two toddlers and eat late at night, now I eat lean cuisine at night which isn't.that bad but my hubby says that my eating late is keeping me from loosing weight...any advice would be appreciated.. Am I losing really slow because it seems like everyone else does so much better???

I am a slower loser. I had surgery on Aug 6 2012 and weighed 235 lbs at 5'6". I've lost 75lbs, and have 20 to go at 9 months post op.

You need to get your Protein and hydrate along with exercise. Take your kids on a walk, push them in a stroller, go to a park, but make time to move. The more you move the better your back will be as the weight will go. But stop eating late that can't be good.

      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.
