We are surgery twins! Also had surgery 11/15/19..I have hit a couple plateaus along the way but I’m still continuing to lose, just maybe not as fast as I thought I would. I lost 22 lbs in the first month after surgery but that has slowed down since then. My surgeon says I should expect to lose about 10 lbs a month from now on...just hang in there! And keep following the plan

There is an entire slow loser club here at this forum that you don’t hear from as much. People are way more likely to post good news than bad.

I too am a slow loser but will not give up the fight :)

I need to join this too!

I had surgery 11 dec 2019 so just coming up to 4wks post op. Lost 13lb in first two weeks now not lost anything in last week and half. Feel like I am failing so frustrating.

do a search on the "three week stall". Happens to almost everyone. Stick to your plan and the stall will eventually break. I promise.

      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?
