That should not mess you up at all. You should still be approved for the surgery. Just asking ? How much have you gained? Make sure you work out eat healthy and do what's necessary so that you can get this surgery. Come your goal is to live life

It depends on your insurance, I think most do want to see an overall loss but since you did well for the first 3 weeks it will probably be okay. All you can do is ask right?? Best of luck to you!

Youbreally should bebok with that and if that is what you gained you can easily take them 5lbs off. With walking cutting sugar and bread out. But I don't believe that will mess you up at all. Because actually me working at a bariactric clinic is what we want to see is you get the weight off and when you do gain a little back we see you can not do it on your own that you do need the surgery. The surgery is really up to the surgeon it's what he or she tells the insurance company , it's what they send in to the insurance company. But I know you got this you won't be denied due to this

You really should be ok with that and if that is what you gained you can easily take them 5lbs off. With walking cutting sugar and bread out. But I don't believe that will mess you up at all. Do a full liquid diet before

      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.
