You look great!!! You can loose more by cutting out anything white in your diet. Stick to meats and lots of green veggies for about 10 days to reboot your metabolism. Keep up the great work :-). You must be on the tall side because u look like you lost way more than 91 lbs. Beautiful!!!

I had my surgery on January 7, so far I'm 91lbs down. For some reason I feel behind like I'm not doing well as I could or should be,bur her it is.

Hi Ready4....,

First off, congratulations. You look great! I hope you feel as good as you look. Your post brings me to something I have been contemplating since my own journey started 9 weeks ago. I think that so many of us detached from our bodies a long time ago, so as we are loosing weight so rapidly and starting a new relationship with our bodies, it is difficult to recognize our own accomplishments. I read daily on this forum people posting about how they have lost tons of weight, but who can't see it. It is really an interesting thing. I struggle with it too. I have lost 49 lbs, but I struggle to see it. I sometimes find myself focusing on the other 93 lbs I want to loose. I have to check myself mentally. I remind myself that I hadn't lost this much weight in 15 years and to be patient and to Celebrate my accomplishments. I would offer you the same....CELEBRATE your victory! Go buy a cute new dress and go dancing or do something to show off your great new body! No matter how far you feel you need to go, don't forget how far you have come! CONGRATS.

      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.
