August 20th here and doing FANTASTIC! Down 56 pounds (at a stall right now of course) and feel great! I just put on my work pants this morning and swore because I have to throw them out and get a smaller size. My clothing budget has gone up a lot in the past few months :)

August 8 here. Down 115 pounds, although for the past week the scale has been going up and down the same one pound. I swear it's laughing at me!

Have donated 16 trash bags of clothes (including a couple of bags of clothes that my kids have outgrown). Still shopping out of the stash of clothes that I always refused to get rid of, thinking "maybe someday." I did go out and buy shoes, as my old ones are too big, and a couple of nice tops to wear to work.

Way to go you guys.

I started at 403 pounds. The heavier you start, the more/faster you lose (in general, there are always exceptions). I'm also wondering if my sleeve is smaller than average, as I'm still able to eat only 1/3 cup at meals.

      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?
