Hello Everyone!

​My name is Megan. I had my surgery June 11, 2014. I lost my weight slow and had many stalls. About 5 months post-op is when my weight just stayed the same. It wouldn't budge. I was doing everything that I could and still it wouldn't go down. It is now nearing my 1 year anniversary and I'm still at 250. Don't get me wrong, I am glad that I'm not gaining any of the weight back, however, I'm still upset that I have stopped losing weight and that I am not at my "happy" (goal) weight...

Has anyone else had this problem? Having a stall lasting this long?

HW: 322

SW: 315

CW: 250

Are you weighing or measuring your portions and tracking your food? How many calories, carbs, and grams of Protein are you getting each day? Are you meeting your goals for fluids? Do you find yourself snacking or grazing? Are you getting enough sleep?

I'm in a stall... 2 months and counting. But I admit, my life is in compete and utter upheaval right now. I do not graze but I snack, and I don't get enough sleep, my insomnia is coming back, I've been fighting depression due to a devastating financial loss, and my family has been through so much this year...

I know that my stall is due heavily to home issues, and so are my diet choices...I haven't emotionally eaten in YEARS and I caught myself doing it last week.

Are you having any significant life problems that could be affecting you?

      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?
