I'm 10 weeks post op and my hands were the first thing I noticed the weight loss in. I can't wear my wedding ring anymore because it's so big on me now...and I had size 6.75 sized fingers to begin with.

I've always had size 10 fingers. I'm three weeks post-op, and down 37.7 total. Just had to add a Ring Snuggie to keep my wedding band from slipping off my slimmer fingers. (Picked these up in the Wal-Mart jewelry section, $3 for a 6-pack.)

I need these! Thanks!

Not sure about the fingers as don't wear rings but have had to tighten my watch strap about three extra holes since the surgery, my arms are much thinner for sure. Seemed to be the first thing to slim down as I lost weight.

Indeed! I'm only 8 days out and my ring keeps sliding upside down so the diamond setting is on the palm side..my feet also looking more attractive;-) small victories!

      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?
