Congratulations! I'm 8 weeks post op and just hit 56 pounds lost! I'm so happy and feel so much better. I didn't notice a loss in my stomach right away but trust me it WILL come.

I had surgery on the 7/11 and was supposed to have my post op on 7/19 but didn't make it cuz I ended up back in hospital.. But long story short I had it today so a little over two weeks.. But I'm down 27lbs.. I notice it in my legs and arms and face but barely in my stomach area even tho I notice it in the way my clothes fit.. Regardless I'm so happy I made the right decision!! Thanks everyone on here for helping me with my journey along the way!!

Hey guys, my surgery was April 12th and felt compelled to tell you all... it slowly gets better and stop obsessing over the scale. It WILL come off and when it does it happens FAST. Concentrate on getting in your nutrition so you feel human. Its tough and for the first month I almost regretted the decision to have surgery but now Im 65lbs lighter and am finally getting a bit of energy back. Good luck to you all!

I am 5 days post op gastric bypass. I am regretting having done this surgery. I feel horribly ill (lots of diarrhea) and the pain is still lingering. As soon as I sip a Protein shake it goes right through me. I am getting depressed as I can not leave the house in case of an accident. Has anyone else experienced this? Feeling defeated

@@inkdcosmoqueen, Congratulations! An awesome first weigh-in sure makes you feel good about your WLS, doesn’t it?? Even if you did have a rough time of it at the beginning, I am glad you are staying positive and seeing the results you are hoping for! I hope it is smoother for you and just as successful the rest of the way!

      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?
