I’m almost 7 weeks out from surgery. When I first started my weight loss journey last July I was a 2x and they were tight. At surgery I was a tight 1x. Today I bought some XL shirts. Woohoo!

I know how exciting that is. My progression took longer than yours but I’m slow but steady. I, too, had 2x & even 3x. Yesterday I bought 2 tops in Misses XL! The right size & fit shows off your hard earned weight loss.
I even had drawer of some smaller bras that I never even wore with tickets still on. Before surgery size 48 or even 50 cause I was so broad. Now some of these smaller bras fit & were 42 & 44!
So encouraging even if scale doesn’t reflect #’s you want.
Happy for you!

I'm tall and carry most of my weight in my legs. I'm ecstatic about this NSV but will say the pant sizes are going down much slower 😕 We will get there :)

      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?
