I'm now 6 months out and have lost 63 pounds!

I'm 8 pounds from my original goal of 120 and it's still coming off!

This past month i have dropped quicker than the previous 2 months and the inches are REALLY showing.

I'm thinking of lowering my goal now.

I have a PS appointment in November, so i'll see what he tells me. If he takes off 5-10 pounds, I'm fine where i'm at because that will put me at 115-110 and will be getting rid of the excess skin that i would be trying to get rid of by lowering my goal anyhow!

(i'm only 4'11", so my 'ideal weight is between 91-123!)

I have lost 82 lbs in 6 months and I can honestly say that I have no flab in my face or arm hang. My legs are also toned:thumbup:. My only problem area is my inner thigh:scared2:. My Doctor is also very impressed with how toned my skin is I owe this to GOD. I think that walking has helped with toning and losing most of my belly fat. I know age and genetics plays a role also.

Walking is good for my heart and helps me stay toned :blush:.

Good Luck :blushing:

      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?
