It has been 4 Months 7 days sense my New Journey Started!

I am down 36 pounds!!...some people ask me why I have not lost more weight...ugggg

I am so exited with how my extra unwanted pounds have come off! and I am finally able to make a goal to when I might be able to hit

my target weight and I am shooting for January 1st!

I have learned so much in the last 4 months with my new baby...such as eat slow!!Chew,Chew,Chew...don't gulp when drinking.

someday's my Buddy likes what ever I eat... other days no matter what I try My Band don't like it, so it's always a new experiance

learning to live with my new Buddy.

But to those who are just starting out I will tell you to relax and enjoy the new journey,and don't worry about what others have lost

in the same time frame, we are all different, we don't look the same we don't live the same as other's so why would we loose the weight the same as other's...So stop Compairing yourself to the other's... I might not have lost a lot of weight to some but the way I look at it is I have not put any on!!! and I am very happy and excited with what I have lost and will continue to look forward to my future with my New Buddy.

Hi Karad,

Thanks for the positive post. I will be banded on 8/8/14. It does help to reinforce that I'm doing the right thing by reading positive info from other banders. Keep up the great work!

Well said. Congratulations on what you've lost so far. You will start losing again if you just keep following your orders. Continued success

      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.
