I haven't lost 100 lbs yet - but I've lost 72 lbs since September 26th. Hoping to reach 160 by the time I go to see my doctor in September. At my 6 month I was 189 and the doctor said he expected I would lose 20 or 30 lbs by my next appointment in October. So I've lost the 20, if I get to 160 it will be 29 lbs by then and a total of 80 lbs.

the common thing all sleevers "share"

is that we are all different ;)

if someone has more weight to lose - the weight initially usually comes off quicker

same way if you don't have that much to lose, it "might" take you longer to get to your goal

in my case i wanted to lose 100 lbs

in about 9 months i had lost about 85 lbs

it took me 3 months to lose the last 15 lbs - but i did it!!!! :)

don't look too far ahead

take one day at a time

enjoy each day, even thought you will have the common stalls :angry:

you will continue to lose your weight

but..........never compare your weight loss to others

you are on your way to a healthier, happier, longer life :)

good luck

      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.
