That's AMAZING!

Not to be a downer, but don't expect that rate of loss always. Here is how it will go for you in general:

After your amazing, large losses, expect a stall in the next few weeks. Don't freak out. Your body is just needing to adjust things and take a break.

Once the stall is over, your losses should be at a more 'normal' rate of 2-5 pounds a week, depending on how much more weight you have to lose.

Good luck and good job on your amazing first week loss!

Congrats! Know that that pace won't continue, so embrace it while it melts away.

Outstanding! When things slow down to a normal pace (or stall) just stick to your diet plan and portions.

      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?
