Gained 3 lbs from Sunday to monday. Took me so much to get o 161, and now i'm at 164. How is that possible? I realize I ate different than my day-to-day... But that was one time and i did not go crazy and eat crazy things i shouldnt... I was sick and needed real food....

Your weight can change from day to day. Mine has changed from 5 lbs from morning to evening!! I forget how many calories equal a pound of weight but it could be Water retention, or you did not have a bowel movement or both... I would not worry about it, just do a bit more exercise and really watch for a day or two or go back on to a liquid diet for a week.

I am back on the up and down stall. It has happened a few times for me already. I go up and down the same 3 to 4 pounds without going lower than my previous lower weight. yes it is frustrating and I am doing nothing different and even increasing exervise etc when this happens, but it still stays in a stall. once it was 3 weeks (was in my second month post op) another time a week. this time it has been almost 2 weeks. It seems to happen about once a month, not related to menstual cycle either. Just be patient and stay on track and eventually it will start coming off again. You are too early in the process for you not to continue to lose weight. Do not stress over it or get too depressed. It is not the fun part of the process but it will be over soon.

I really hate the stall! At first I hit the breaking point at 220 and now I've struggle between 218 and 217 for 3 weeks. I increased my exercise as much as I could. - which was non to 1/2 mile and tried to eat 1 extra meal of Protein. It worked!!! But for 2 pounds. Now I'm at 215. What happen to the 3 and 4 pounds a week drop??

Lovely that could be some good old muscle weight. Or one good pooh and it will be gone. Don't be a slave to the scale. Do you feel better? Are your clothes looser? Do you have more energy? the weight will come off. Don't get on that scale for a few days if you can help it and by the end of the week you may be pleasantly surprised.

      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?
