I was sleeved on 11/28/16, and am down 34lbs. I had a B12 shot the week before surgery, then the week after and the beginning of this month. I have one more in February, but it doesn't seem to be helping. I take all my Vitamins, and eat meat with high Protein. I'm doing everything I should, but I am constantly exhausted lately. I was wondering if anyone else has had or is having this same problem?

Are you drinking all your Water?

I'm going through this right now too, as well as headaches, and the dizziness that I was experiencing is getting better. While I loved Water before surgery I dont care for it as much now, it just leaves my stomach with a hollow cold feeling, but when I do have Water (hubby reminds me) and add Propel to it, I feel better. What about more fruits? Natural sugars? By chance are you experiencing a stall too Ive been on one for nearly 2 weeks, having had my procedure on Oct 5th 16. I hope you feel better soon! I do like wearing the B12 Patches, I notice a difference.

      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?
