Hi.... So yes I know everyone has a target to lose a certain amount of weight by a certain period of time. Like 100 pounds in a year, extremely doable in a sleeve. But then again, if in 1 year you end up losing 90-80 pounds even that is acceptable.

I have my birthday in 20 days and I need to lose 10 pounds. Now somebody please help me and enlighten me on how can I reach that goal.

I have been losing 10 pounds per month quite consistently. It's my 4th month post op and I have lost 46 pounds, feeling great! Couldn't be better... But this birthday target is kinda pushing me and I really wanna feel extremely awesome on my birthday.... Please help me and guide me.

Follow your plan to the letter. You may make it or you may not, its a marathon not a sprint as they say. Good luck!

Absolutely agree with others. You are already leading your lifestyle. Treating this like a short-term diet (and trying to lose 10 pounds in 20 days sounds just like that to me) is the wrong mind-set.

Control what you're supposed to control -- what you eat, how much you eat, when you eat (and drink), and how much you're moving your booty. That's what you can control. The scale will respond.

And good luck to 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.
