Hey everybody. I'm 12 weeks post op. My surgery was January 13 and I have lost 69 pounds since then. I have a check up tomorrow so I'll dibs out how much I've lost. I feel like I've been doing well with walking and working out. But right now I feel like my cravings are coming back. I can only eat 3oz of food right now. And my stomach can't handle more cause I get sick. I've been keeping up with my protien intake and Water. But I am craving crunchy in my life! I want crackers or chips or something. Any suggestions. I heard something about kale chips. I'm do worried because the last thing I want to do its go back to being over 500lbs. Btw on the day I had surgery I was 542lbs. Last doctor's appointment I was 473. So I'll let you know how tomorrow goes. Anyways. Help a sister out.

Hi! I'm new here. I've been browsing for support groups as I am considering wls. My 1st consultation is 4/27/15. I'm more excited than nervous. I'm sure my nerves will become greater as I get closer to surgery. I'm sure I'll qualify because of my weight. Any suggestions for support groups on FB, instagram, etc or support groups period? Lol

And congrats on your recent weight loss! Keep up the good work!

      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.
