Not to be outdone by Dub, my 6 month surgiversary!



Recommended Posts

Can't be outdone by Dub , here's my 6 month progress report.

I was 276 at my heaviest that I know of anyways. Was having knee problems, back, sleep apnea, borderline hypertension, high cholesterol, and was headed down the diabetes road fast. Most of those are gone, no more sleep apnea or blood pressure issues, knee still has a little bit to go, but it is better.

I've gone from a size 44 pants and 2XL shirt to a 34 in pants and large shirt.

I've been training for a 5k, which I did this morning, 6 months after my sleeve surgery. Finished just under 30 minutes! So glad I've gone this route of gastric sleeve!post-261380-14620635155147_thumb.jpg

Ryan and all the other studly dudes ... congratulations to you. You are all doing so well.

I can't run anymore (thought I could, but those days are past). So I am jealous of your trotting around out there. And I love, really love, your shirt.

Looking good, Ryan!

I thought you guys were always having "piss'n " contests, not weight loss contests. :)

Both of you look "maaavelous", Daaalings.

Both of you are great examples on how this weight loss "Thing" should and can be done.

I'm having rather a "proud momma" moment! :) (OK, so I'm old)

Great Job!

You don't need my prayers, but there they go-- straight up!

      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?
