2 months post op (pic)



Recommended Posts

I'm 2 months and a week post op this month. I went to an ugly Christmas sweater party yesterday and I cheated...had some mixed drinks for the first time since my surgery. I'm down total 25lbs which is a bit discouraging to me but my doctor tells me I'm doing good. It turns out I'm losing inches fast and she says the scale will eventually catch up. Anyway I took some pics yesterday and I finally see the weight loss. My face is covered because I would only like the people I told to know about my surgery. post-237560-14191923391661_thumb.jpg

Looking good!! It's not a timeline contest. Lose at your own pace. You did this to become healthier. Are you healthier today than at the start? then that's the only thing you need to focus on right now.

Thank you! Yes I am healthier and I have to keep reminding myself that's it's not a race almost everyday. With my second fill I do notice the change in my eating habits, almost like food is boring to me now lol. Other times I'm like getting a plate full of food because hungry then laugh because I only can eat a cup of it. It's definitely a change.

I am also 2 months and a week out from surgery (Oct 8) and have lost 21 lbs so we are at a similar pace. I agree it is frustrating at times, but hopefully by this time next year we will have some amazing before/after pics. Good luck!

      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?
