Can you explain why you can't keep up with the Water and Protein?

Stop weighing yourself until you have met your Fluid and protien goals for 3 days. No goals met, no scale. Your body needs what you are not giving it. You have to set your mind to it and figure out how to do it. Failure is not except able. You've got to do this. You can do this. We're cheering you on :)

Same thing here.. i surpass my Water goals and also exceed my Protein goals.. I'm sure I'm consuming less than 50g of carbs (including about 8g of sugar from yoghurt)
Same 5lbs from 2 weeks ago.. infact the scale went up by almost 7lbs over the weekend. Not worried though. It has happened before..
It's still a bit annoying. Enjoying the non scale truimphs anyway.

      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?
