GW: HEALTHY AND HAPPY.

I’m almost 8 weeks post op and I’m down 42 pounds! I’m ahead of my surgeons program (at 12 weeks I should be down 50 pounds so I’m alittle ahead).

I know everyone is different when it comes to this and how we use this tool but I’m just curious on other peoples experiences, how fast they lost with types of diet and exercises they do.

I've been stalled at 187-190 since 10/2 but hoping I can get to my goal of 175 before the 2 year mark.

Started my journey back in April of this year. I had to do 6 months for insurance and just by following their plan (plus the pre-op diet); I lost almost 40 lbs.

Surgery date: 10/30/17

Age: 44

HW: 380 back in March/April

SW: 343

CW: 305

Goal: 225-235

Never, in my wildest dreams, could I ever image the surgery would work this well. Granted, in no way am I disappointed, but thought I'd experience slower loss. However it seems I can average 3-5lbs per week. My next small goal is to see my weight go below 300 lbs!

      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?
