I was revised to a sleeve 2/3. I've lost 26lbs & have 20 more to go. I haven't been that low (goal of 136lbs) in about 30 years. I got down to 147 with the band (2002). I'm only loosing one pound a week now, but I'm happy with that. Couldn't have done it without help!!!

Good luck to you! You're doing great!!!

I feel like I am going to be a slow loser. I have lost 13 pounds in the 2 weeks since surgery, but I know that will slow down. If this time next year I am at goal maintaining, I will be happy.

Hey, I had the same Doc as you. I sleeved 2/2/2015. I am a slow loser but it is coming off. I lost 11 pounds on the 10 day pre-op and 27 since surgery. I am also 5'3" and my goal weight is 150.

I go back to Dr. K on 4/30/2015. I so want to be in onederland by then but think I will be a couple of pounds short. I am 203.6 pounds this AM and am losing about 2 pounds a week. My appointment is a week and half plus I should lose and exta pound or 2 to account for clothes and the Protein shake Breakfast for the doctor weigh in.

I loved the nurses at the hospital. I was the only patient for both nights so had personal attention. Make sure you stop upstairs when you go for your follow-ups. They like to see how their patients are progressing.

      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.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.
