I went out today I needed a work jacket/coat/cardigan things because I am getting so cold these days now it's winter and well I have lost 90lbs since last winter so yeah I feel the cold lol

I found a lovely merino cardigan it was 50% off as well but it was too big !!!! And they didn't have a smaller size .. That felt great lol

Then I found some track pants and pjs which I tried on and I am now wearing a size XL the last time I brought these things I was wearing a 3xl !!!! I am super stoked it felt great to walk around the shop and not have to just go to the plus size section !!!

I know that I have along way to go to reach my goal and I am only in week 9 post op but it feels so great to drop 2-3 sizes and it's great to be on track. My birthday is august 5 and I want to have drooped another 22 lbs by then (if I can) and that should be also another dress size :)

My legs and butt have gotten smaller so pants look baggy round my legs but my waist /tummy/hips is where the majority of my weight is still sitting but I know it's a slow process but once again it's great to see results...

The only down side to all of is is that because I am so short (5'1") I have to have all my pants taken up and that costs nearly as much as the pants themselves ! Lol lol

Weigh in day tomorrow wish me luck :)

My husband thinks the surgeon operated on my temperature sensor because I am always so cold now. Good luck with the weigh in. You must be in the Southern Hemisphere if winter is coming. Big congratulations on your loss so far, fantastic!

      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?
