I need some help I’m exactly a month out from surgery and have hit a stall, my surgery weight was 299 and I’m going between 275-277 right now, so I have lost 20 or so pounds since surgery. What I am having a issue with getting enough calories and probably Protein in, I’m probably getting 400-500 calories and I know it should be more, but as hard as I try I just can’t seem to eat more. I tend to be able to eat more at night and that’s when I get most my protein in. I have finally started back at the gym swimming and doing cardio on the bike, so I hope that helps, but I need some suggestions to get this stall moving... I feel like it’s pretty early into the game to have a stall like this Its been close to two weeks , it’s really disappointing and discouraging for me.. I’m trying to stay away from the scale, but it’s hard

Hello, hi I’m in the same situation. I was sleeved on 10/11/2017. I weighed in at 303 and now I’m between 275-277 too. If you look at YouTube search for Dr.V.......he talks about exercising too early at the gym. It has something to do with exercising and few calories.

      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?
