Hello all,

Starting weight 368

Surgery weight 341

Today's weight 261

Had my surgery on the 24th of July 2013

Off all blood pressure, chloresterol meds, off my insulin pump but still shooting 15 units of lantus twice a day. I feel fantastic and I couldn't be happier about my surgery, my weight loss and my life. Best thing I ever did for myself and my family

By the numbers:

Starting Weight: 379

Current Weight: 321.6

Total Loss: 57

Long Term Goal: 160

In general, I feel good about my rate of weight loss and am feeling better. However, I need to work harder at getting in all my Protein, especially since I've added in weight training to my routine at the gym. I just missed my first mini-goal of losing 50 lbs by my birthday (October 15), but made it a few days later. Next mini-goal is 100 lbs lost by February 15...we'll see how I do :)

      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?
