March sleeves, what does a day of eating look like for you? I have a Protein bar for Breakfast. Fat free hot dog w no bun and low fat cheese stick for lunch. But I am hungry by 2 pm. I snack on cherub tomatoes and yogurt dip. dinner varies greatly. Sometimes i eat a single cheese enchilada. Or a grilled chicken breast. But have only lost forty pounds. Compared to y'all, I am way behind. Do u know how many grams of Protein u get each day? Do u track calories at all?

I'm feeling discouraged. 40 pounds down is ok in 5 months. But, nothing huge. You guys are doing great! Congrats!

It depends on the day for me. I am not as strict as some.

Today breakfast was a vanilla premier rtd Protein shake and a yoplait 100 greek yogurt.

lunch was a small homemade chicken taco. Lots of chicken and lettuce a bit of cheese and small flour tortilla with salsa.

Snack was 1/2 cup of fat free ice cream.

dinner tonite is a stuffed green pepper. I should have leftovers for lunch on tuesday.

I will probably have a plum for snack tonite.

You cant judge yourself by what others have done or are doing. You are you.

My diet is probably carb heavy for some, but I walk 2 miles 5 days a week and on weekends it can be 3 miles with a large dog and a pulling dog. At the same time. Some resistance work there :-)

I do dance videos a couple nights a week, choosing them off "on demand".

So my diet fits me. I found eating 800 calories and below 40 carbs meant i wasnt losing weight and i was tired.

shake things up for a bit and see what happens.

      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?
