I've been at a stall since about a week after surgery and now it's been 12 days since the stall started and I still haven't lost anything. How long have your stalls lasted? I'm starting to lose hope here. Super depressed the scale won't move.

My first month out was slow. The doc said it happens because lack of energy and healing after surgery. Now I'm seven months out, lost 110 lbs and I just hit another stall. Stay focused and do not give up. Your only enemy is you. I've also seen a lot of people taking in like 1000 calories when I'm still only getting 700. Track all your foods, fluids, exercise. That will help you see your trends.

I actually have a lot of energy, I walk everyday, get all my fluids, but I'm lucky if I'm even able to get in 500 calories a day. I track EVERYRHING! It's just SUPER frustrating!

My first week I dropped 10 pounds. These past two weeks have been slow. I stalled for about a week and now at almost 4 weeks out I feel like it's picking back up. I'm down about 17 pounds.

I am 3.5 weeks out and once I transitioned from liquids to some solids I have noticed a stall. I am guessing it is because my metabolism has to catch up from being almost dormant the first two weeks.

      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?
