So I am approaching my last 6 month follow up with my insurance. We have to complete a 6 month follow up with a nutritionist and than we have the surgery. Now I have to lose about 10 lbs before March 11th. I'm nervous because I am really struggling with these last pounds, it seems like no matter what I do it can't come off. I'm telling u, I work out drink Water watch what I eat, but i am at a steady weight this is so frustrating, honestly I'm contemplating on starving myself or doing the lemonade challenge, I'm running out of time and if i don't lose this weight it's a strong possibility that i can't get it, until i lose the weight. Ughhh since October i have been following the orders and getting things done, he wouldn't bring me this far to leave me.

Just gently suggesting to go as low carb as you can.......no junk.......hydrate...try to time it so you have a good hearty BM before your appointment (might be worth close to a pound on its own!)

Drastic times equals drastic measures, liquid only almost guaranteed to work.

Protein Shake, broths will help. Also will help you get prepared for the first phase of the prep.

      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?
