Of course I would like dramatic results since I feel I have changed my eating habits, calorie intake and exercise routine. I use to loose more on my fad diets but then regained. I sure hope this slowly but surely method wins the Game

I feel like I am loosing too fast from what I read though that's typical the first few months post op. post-213213-14125774882384_thumb.jpg

Everyday I get out shower and something else is jiggling.

How far out are you?

have you had any adjustments. - my loss seems to come and go.. also with up's and downs. but for the most part it's a downward slope.. the first few months post banding can be some of the hardest - till you find that "green Zone". hang in there.. and also keep in mind slow is so much better for your body i've lost 70 over the last year not where i want to be yet but so far my body/skin have had the chance to bounce back with me. :D

Slow weight loss is hard. This is why I only told two people in my life I had wls. Even they keep expecting me to drop huge amounts per week

I feel my weight is coming off slow also. I was sleeved on 10/9 and have only lost 19 since. I was told I should lose 30 my first month. Wish they never told me this so I wouldn't feel like a failure at only 19 loss. I do admit, I am not walking every day. That probably has a lot to do with it. But I am still hurting when I walk. (back mostly)

AWE hang in there I think it varies so much person to person we can't fit ourselves into a mold about it all.

I've lost about 55-60 for the last three weeks i go from 315 to 310 randomly I weight myself daily its annoying.

BUT my close are all falling and loose fitting and I see the inches and changes to my actual body.

I'm shrinking in places I did not know would or could shrink lol

Hang in there don't let it define you and try to walk more if you can. I know I'm working a bit more everyday for more steps I wear a step tracker and I've gone from average 400 before surgery to average of 1200 a day and some days over 2000 I do a lot more for myself now so it adds up quickly.

      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.
