The first month I lost about 20 pounds. It was pretty cool.

It's a fairly broad range and there are no guarantees whether you will be on the high end or low end. Some people lose lots, other actually gain weight from all the IV fluids. Expecting a big loss can be setting yourself up for a big disappointment.

ETA: I lost 32lbs. 26 at my 2 week f/u and another 6 in the next 2 weeks.

Month 1 post-op I lost 10.4 pounds.

I was very happy with that. Most I'd lost in a month in decades!

My gentle advice is not to set monthly scale goals. Instead, focus on something you can control -- like your Protein grams, Water ounces, steps walked, etc.

a lot depends on your size to start with, etc. i lost 38 pounds first month

but that is not typical. Every journey is different.

      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?
