Hello All, My name is Beth. I'm new to this site and am currently on a 6-mo. doctor monitored wt.-loss program that my insurance requires. I'm in the 3rd month now. I'm doing okay, but wasn't doing so well the first two months. 1200 calories is a lot less than I'm accustomed to. I didn't exercise much the first two months and also didn't lose much weight. But now I'm getting on my treadmill every day. I'm also keeping a food journal now. I look forward to reading your posts.

Hi Beth, and welcome. Keeping a food journal definitely helped. I resisted it for almost a year and a half. But, I finally started tracking and was amazed at some of things I thought were healthy and low calorie and really weren't.

Keep us posted on how things are going and let us know if you have any questions.

Hi there! I'm starting my 3rd month of physician weight loss. LA Weightloss taught me about keeping a journal, and it really helps. I haven't lost any weight, but I haven't gained any!! I'm picking up my excercise, and hope that will help!

Good luck!

Hi Molly, Thanks for the post. I know it's difficult to stick with a diet plan but we have to do it don't we...lol. I just made an awesome frozen strawberry smoothie that only has 70 calories and 0 fat. It was just what I needed to get me through the rest of the afternoon. Good luck and keep posting! Beth

      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?
