lost 51 lbs in 4.5 months



Recommended Posts

I had surgery on April 10 with Dr Aceves in Mexicali. This is the best thing I have ever done in my life and wish I had done this a long time ago. I started at 189 day of surgery and now weigh 138. My goal weight is to be 120 by the end of the year. I really don't see that happening. My height is 5'1 so on the short side. I am wearing size small tops and size 4-6 in pants. Have been fat my whole life and the first time I can remember being this size. I have 3 sisters and all of them are skinny but I ended up getting the fat genes. Good luck to everyone.

Congrats! I am having surgery on Wednesday. I weigh 195 & have been wondering how long it would take to lose the weight. My goal weight is 135. Nice to see it took less than 6 months. My doctor said 1/2 in the first 3 months & the balance over 9 months.

      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?
