I'm 9 months post op and I can't seem to make the scale budge.

I workout like a crazy lady and I think I eat right. At least it's worked for the 86 pounds I've lost thus far.

Any ideas that you have or experience you could share.

Thanks.

Brandi

Start with logging. Just "thinking" you eat right could be an issue and using a food log will help you identify where you might need to change and/or give you something to provide to your NUT for help.

I concur with the above. I log everything, even the two wintogreen lifesavers I just ate at my manicure place (30 cal, btw). If that doesn't work, call your nutritionist.

At 9 months, your allotment for meals has increased significantly. At this point if you were concentrating on consuming high Protein meals, you should be able to reduce the number of Protein supplements (Protein shakes, protein bars) that you are taking (and the calories associated with those supplements).

I am almost 10 months out and have only lost 3 lbs in this past month so I hear you! But - I have dropped 3 pant sizes this past month too - so go figure. Just keep following your plan. I have started to increase my activity level a bit more and that seems to have broken my stall. (*crossing fingers!*)

      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?
