My program will cancel anyone who gains any weight over a couple of pounds. They also have a 7 month wait. So for 7 months you have to watch what you eat to show you are serious. I've been in my program for 2.5 months and I am down 12lbs, but they also put me on Saxenda to help assist me. Not gonna lie, I work out and try to eat better. It's hard though. If it was easy we wouldn't be here. Good luck to you!!

Just had my pre-op class this week, I had gained a couple of pounds. I did eat things I shouldn’t have during the holidays, but I am back on a routine. Surgery date is 2/7/18 and I am super excited,scared,emotional...... our program says that you can only be within a 5 lbs of your pre-op goal weight. I wish you all the luck in the world and think you will be fine just do better this week. Remember take it day by day.

      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?
