Coming up on 4 Months Post-Op



Recommended Posts

Hello , my heaviest weight was On March 2017 of last year and was 280lbs. I was 255lbs on my surgery date which was Oct 5, 2017. I'm a gym maniac I work out 5 days a week for at least a hour mostly 90 mins... Today I'm at 220lbs. I feel like I haven't lost anything between months 3 and 4... I'm afraid to check the scale cause I don't wanna depress myself when I see I haven't lost much and worked so hard. I didn't eat as healthy as I should of during the 3rd month because I was traveling alot. I've been pretty disciplined the past 2 weeks. When was everybody's greatest weightloss ? My goal weight is 180/170 so I'm 40/50lbs from where I wanna be. I'm open too all suggestions.

Hi Buffalo Biil, I loved your Wild West show. Love that you're a gym maniac, you could branch out to mechanical bull riding next. Remember when you despair of weight loss, muscle weighs more than globby fat. I'm sure you're still firming up and losing inches. Well on your way to stud muffinhood. Keep up the good work.

Like mentioned above, I would check your inches lost. I'm still in my preop, and I haven't lost much, but I go to the gym a lot and I've noticed my clothes fitting better. I would say keep up with inches, you are probably getting toned and building muscle. Good luck!!

      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?
