I have found that a lot of people have a stall at the 3 week mark, I also had one.

Also at three weeks a lot of people are a little more emotional at this time.

I think both the body and the mind are going through a adjustment period.

In two days I hit my three week mark, and I've noticed a stall also. I've gotten so used to dropping weight so fast (46 lbs so far) I got bummed but then realized I've hit the phase where it's going to drop less now I've already lost all the Water weight. Just be patient and don't loose the good habits you've gained ????

Don't worry after the 3 week stall you will start to loose fast again.

The stalls are just part of the process, you get worried you are doing some thing wrong

or the surgery stopped working. The stalls are the way your body looses weight, you are putting your body through a big change.

Hi! I'm about 2.5 weeks out, surgery was on April fools day. I have so many emotions going on its crazy. Tonight the biggest is fear and worry; I was able to drink/eat a cambells Soup to go in its entirety, this really shocked me because it is 10oz. Is that normal? I didn't feel overly full. Makes me wonder if my sleeve is too big. I had not eaten much since 11:30 am. I was even still feeling hungry and ate a sugar free pudding cup an hour later. I have still had less than 500 cals all day. Up until now it seemed I was only able to eat smaller portions. Any thoughts?

Thanks,

Sarah

      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?
