I finally made it to ONEDERLAND!



Recommended Posts

This morning the scale finally read 199.8!!!! I had surgery on 5/16/16, my highest weight was 252, surgery weight was 226.4.....So a total of 52.2lbs down!!

I know with my current weight being so close to 200 I may very well see that 2 again......but dang it, I made it and I'm going to cheer about it!!!! Yay me!!! :D

Congratulations!!! I am so happy to read your post today. We are almost exactly the same..i was sleeved 5/17. Hw 254, Sw 230..on monday I also made it to onederland. I was so excited...30lbs! Whoot. Then I saw my nut the same day who burst my bue and told me they expected me to be down 40lbs..by the two month mark. I was so down after that. Readinng your b post tells me I have no reason to be down..and am right where I am suppossed to be. We are killing it!! Go us!!

@@DonnaJeanne I agree we are killing it and thankfully my surgeon is thrilled with my progress! But they didn't weigh me on the day of surgery just during my pre-op appointment which was just before I started my two week pre-op diet.. :P Congrats on your progress and keep on keeping on!!

Hooray! I am going to cry when I find Onederland. Today I weighed myself just for fun (I'm one week post-op) and was 255... I haven't been able to break below 260 in years. I was 265 surgery day. I'm so happy I did this, and I can't wait to join you at the Mad Hatter's tea and Protein cake party!

@@kmorri @DonnaJeanne. My stats are also very close to yours. DonnaJeanne, I think it sucks that your NUT burst your bubble. My surgeon has been extremely pleased with my progress. I'm 5'6" my HW was 254, surgery weight was 229 on 5/10/16 and I hit Onederland on Sunday which was exactly 2 months/nearly 9 wks postop . Today my weight is 196.5. My next goal is 185 which will make my BMI *only* overweight (instead of obese).

      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?
