Congrats to you too!!! That's amazing! Are you exercising as well? How much Protein are you getting in ? :)

Thanks cynthia!

I haven't been exercising, but I'll be starting more walking and some biking within a few days. I have been getting in about 70 grams of protien a day (mostly from 3 protien shakes a day) and keeping under 700 calories.

I hear you on the shakes! They are getting old. Great job on the walking! I need to get going I guess. :)

all i can say is Protein, protein and then some more protein. i love my hair and was sad to see so much of it fall out after surgery. i am now nine months out and all of my hair is coming back but that is due to my insistence on protein. vain, i know. protein not only helps with Hair loss but with your muscle coming back. that is my tip: when all else fails have some (sips/bites) protein. congratulations!!!!

Congrats everyone on your amazing progress. I had my procedure on May 9th, so I am just hitting 6 days post op and down 20.2 pounds. Averaging about 3-4 pounds a day.

      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.
