Next week will be my 7 month mark, and so far this month I have only lost 5 pounds. That's 5 pounds in 3 weeks? Umm... Hope next week I loose some more. We'll see :/

Sorry guys, just needed to vent. We all hit these frustrating stages...

It really is frustrating! Been stalled for almost a month, it's hard to be doing all the right things and not see progress

I have lost about 108lbs..

Wow that's amazing! I guess it's normal to start to slow down after 7 months and over 100 lbs. It's frustrating but try to be positive. You've come such a long way. How many times did you lose 5 lbs in 3 weeks before surgery? Maybe a couple times, but if you were like me they just gained right back. At least you know you are still headed in the right direction. By the looks of your profile pic, you are looking great!

Congrats on the major weight loss and hang in there. Sending vibes for a plateau buster week next week!

Thanks for that good vibes! ;)

Yeah i know we start to slow down after 100lbs., but I'm still really over weight, I just kinda stress about me hitting the year mark, and not reaching a healthy weight. But I'm such an over thinker! I need to just relax. Lol

Btw my surgery was February 15th

I think we all think of ourselves as overweight. I am only about 3 months post op, and I am thinner than I have been in 20 years. I actually have some curves and the men are coming out of the wood work , so not used to that. Lol . I am not afraid to take pictures now.

      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?
