Are you looking for the BariatricPal Store? Go now!

Recommended Posts

I am 37 years old, in fairly good health despite being overweight. Even at 484 lbs, I barely had high blood pressure and I didn't cross over into diabetes territory. 165 lbs down, and feeling better by the week... in all things, except my memory.

I feel as though I am a bit more forgetful. And while it's hard to pin that to the surgery, necessarily... I just thought I'd ask the group... does anyone else feel as though they are more forgetful or have some other kind of memory issues post-surgery? Mine was ten months ago (today) and I find myself forgetting little things like I had an appointment today, or this store is a LEFT (but I turned right), or what did I have for dinner last night. It's not always, nor really often... but I do catch myself forgetting little things here and there and I've never felt this way before.

I'm eating very well, lots of Protein and veggies. I'm my Vitamin game about 85% of the time (sometimes I forget, or it's not a good time). I don't get it.

Anyone else?

Yes,I lose my train of thought regularly. I attribute it to lack of calories

I also seem to lose my train of thought at times. I'm so happy that my car knows the way home!

      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.
