How are the April sleevers?



Recommended Posts

Almost five months out for me now and I feel amazing! I really questioned my choice for surgery for the first month or so, but since then I've been quite thrilled.

I've lost about 50 pounds now and want to lose another 20-30. I'm eating about 1200-1400 calories a day and try to get at least 70g of Protein. I walk everyday and take bootcamp and kickboxing. I can eat almost anything. Red meat like steak bugs me, as does rice and really doughy bread.

So how're the other April sleevers doing??

We were same height and weight at surgery, and we have both lost similar weight! Sometimes I think I'm loosing too slow, but know I could have never got this far on my own. The surgery is the best thing I've done. SW 256 CW 203! How could I really complain about that? I try not to go over 1000 calories/day, if a do its only a few. Usually work out at gym and with a trainer 3X week.

      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?
