Recommended Posts

Ok... it's going well... I'm happy about the loss, but do you know of any products to help tighten the skin... I do exercise... but, nothings helping. My dermatoligist said there was nothing that works... but, someone must know something :scared:

Good luck with that. You are totally at the mercy of genetics. No amount of creams or jiggling or massage or anything is going to make any of that stuff go away. It is what it is....excess flab. You can eat right, exercise, etc. and after that...whatever is left is probably there to stay unless you have it removed.

<p>This question was asked at the informational seminar

This is what my doctor's response was

Besides genes or Lipo or TT or any kind of surgery

it's kind of like asking for the magic WL pill he said...let him know when you find it!

      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?
