I don't remember. I will tell you this. I'm at 5 1/2 months and I've lost 100. I kept thinking in the beginning that this wasn't going to work for me, I was going to fail at another weight loss attempt, I'm going to be fat forever, my body hates me, I hate my body blah blah blah. I stressed and worried and asked people if they thought I was losing enough....we're all different and I don't think any of us will ever feel we're losing enough or as much as others and so on.

BUT: I've lost 100 pds. I couldn't do that on my own. I've done it in less than 6 months and chances are, you probably will too. Or at least comparable to that. I've been watching all my April post op buds and we're all pretty much about the same *give or take a few*

So, I guess them rambling post was just a "don't worry about it. You and your body are going to be fine and if you've lost any...it's working". :) Hope that helps

Thank you guys I've lost about 37 lbs so far but I've been stuck at one weight for 3 weeks literally goes down a lb. then back up so I'm worried because I'm not having problems eating anything ... I have huge limitation of course but as long as I chew well I'm able to eat...

      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?
