I wrote my own success story



Recommended Posts

My name is Heather and I am 29 years old. I am 3 years post surgery and I'm still a work in progress... Stating weight was almost 300 lowest was 149. Currently I weigh 163 I'm struggling because my boyfriend loves the happy non dieting me so he cooks. Size is no matter to him but I'm trying to work on it so as not to undo all of my hard work. My new way to balance is to enjoy myself around him while making better choices and sticking to eating a low carb/ fat diet the other days I'm not with him.I've lost five pounds this week and hope to keep succeeding.

Sounds like a good plan. Keep the focus :) my husband sounds like your boyfriend when I cook I cook something that fits what I can eat and obsess about portions and the meal even after so he love when I don't stress it and just watch what and how I eat.

All the look and congrats on the pounds shed this week!

Please don't lose your focus or start gainig, you worked too hard to get where you are !!! You are really balancing everything pretty good I must stay :) I too splurge but if I do I exercise longer the next day extra long and extra hard to burn off the "extra" I may have ate.

      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.
