One-derland after 6 months



Recommended Posts

I have finally reached One-derland after 6 months post surgery. I have lost 94 pounds now and am resetting my goal to 190. I am feeling so good and look like I did when I was in my 30s (I am 58). If you are just starting out, stick with it. It is worth all the suffering and dedication.

Congratulations 👏🎉👏.

How did your weight loss progress? Roughly constant or much quicker in the first couple months?

I lost a lot more weight in the first 3 months than the last 3. I have been steady at 6-8 pounds a month since after the 3rd month. I hope to continue at 4-5 pounds a month until I hit my ideal weight which would pretty much be at my one year point.

Dr Ortiz practice is scary. I myself experience just today with the practice. They have sake coordinators that aren't medical and review patients medical history and decide what medical surgery is best. In my exable I had few doctors here in the US recommending a certain surgery but a coordinator didn't like hat I ask to speak to the doctor about my health. The coordinator felt threatened and stated I am not qualify. The practice may have a better success by reviewing patients medical records to avoid complications for the patients. Unfortunately you can't sue malpractice.

Absolutely inspirational Tony - well done you! 🏆 I'm 3.5 months post op now and 6-8lbs a month for the next few months would do me very nicely!

      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.
