Hi guys and gals! I'm not big into before and after pics. I'm only posting this to help the newbies who may have been at my height and starting weight. It would of been helpful to me in the beginning. I am seven months out. I am only posting a side pic' date=' because I don't want the front of of my big fat face showing on the interwebz. Hehe. My pants in the after shot are getting a bit baggy now...but anyhow, here it is. I still have about 18 lbs to goal.[/quote']

You are right, it is helpful thank you. I'm almost 5'2 and right about your start weight. I am having issues with insurance and my "not good enough" comorbidities at present due to my fluctuating BMI over the last 2 years. Still ready to fight the good fight as I am convinced I will feel so much better, and I know me best.;-)

Honestly' date=' you looked great in your before picture. I'm surprised that you decided on surgery at such a low weight. Anyways, congrats because you look fantastic![/quote']

That's 80 lbs she needed to lose. Thats hard to lose and keep off. My husband and I needed to each lose the same and after years of failing, we went ahead with the surgery too. Look at my pics in my gallery at 222 and 5'6 or my husband at around 275 and 6 feel tall. Ours are front facing too. We are overweight with 80-90 lbs to lose.

      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?
