Recommended Posts

I did surgery at 20. 10 days gone but my weight is not moved(240lbs). I eat Protein more than 80 grams and carb less then 100g. Please help.

How much sugar are you in taking as well as fat?? Also are you walking?

Also some protein is horrible for you, checks sugars and carbs maybe lower your carbs

I'm 5 days out of surgery and I'm walking 15-20 mins a day... I've lost 12 pounds so far but I'm on liquids only doc told me no Protein yet just to worry about fluids until I see him Thursday... Are you having bowel movements also? Tmi but if not it can be all holding in there

What makes you feel like you are doing something wrong? Your body just had major surgery and you body must heal. Sometimes your body throws a little temper tantrum and hold onto everything you put in your mouth. Like all tantrums they will pass. Just stick to what YOUR doc proscribes.

Thank you for advise. Yes. I think my body tantrums me. Need more rest and make my mind calm. Thanks!

I gained weight right after surgery and then about 15 days out, weight started pouring off...5 weeks post surgery I'm 40 lbs down from highest weight with a total weight loss of 48 lbs. Hang in there-- it will come off. My surgeon told me not to focus on weight loss during the first few months, but rather focus on setting up my routine and taking my Vitamins and getting my walk up to 2 miles 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.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
