Recommended Posts

so I planned on weighing in on jan 11 but figured since today marks the one month date since i had surgery i figured wth! i took everything off n got on my scale. it said 231!!! at first i thought it said 241 and i was disappointed but then i looked again n realized i read the scale wrong. i was so shocked but happy as hell. it said 231..:unbelievable i didnt expect to lose that much. the last weigh in on dec 28 i was 237...i figured I really wouldn't lose anything because i havent really been walking daily(too cold or rainy). but seeing that today has motivated me to get my butt up n suck it up n walk 30 minutes a day..and start working out in two weeks since itll be six weeks since the surgery. yayyyyyy im so happy

      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?
