The best person to tell you if you are behind is your surgeon. The office I go to says 50 lbs in 6 months is ahead of the game. I know many have lost far more than that. I am losing slow but steady 54 lbs in 4 months

About 6-10 pounds per month. Months 1-6 now 7 months I'm losing more weight then ever when I should be at stall. I was 211 now 118 my goal was 125 then I changed it to 110 but surgeon told me not to get down to so little. All the sudden I started losing 4-5 pounds per week & I'm eating more & slow down exercise. I'm started Vitamin shake by nature made to stabilize my weight. So far so good. I still watch the scale. I'm stable at the moment.

I lost weight rapidly the first seven months, then I stalled...now at a yr and a half I gained 10...I need to lose 20 to reach my goal weight of 140, I don't want to be a stick figure, at 118 id look like I was a stick figure

      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?
