It's was 6 weeks yesterday since my surgery. I have tried to stay off the scale except on weigh in days, but this morning something pushed me to get on and when I did I had lost 4.4lbs since Monday! That's a grand total of 36lbs since before surgery!!! Ecstatic over here!!! How are you all doing???

I was 6 weeks out yesterday too. I'm down 28lbs since surgery and the scale will not go down past 202. I hate being stuck here. And I feel like I can eat more than ever. Do u guys feel that way now? My doc says I'm doing great but I'm worried I can eat up to 1200 cals a day.

But 6 weeks ago you could eat 4000 calories a day.....

      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.
