Thanks for posting!

I have lost 13 lbs myself since starting first cutting back and now on the pre-op diet given to me on Friday..two Protein shakes a day and one Smart Ones or Lean Cuisine.

October 6 is very close--I know your excited!

Are you on our Smashing Pumpkins threads? There are a group of October Bandsters that are on a list...look under pre-op forum and search for the topic "Any October Bandsters".

My date is right behind you on 10-8.

Keep in touch and let me know how it all goes!

13lbs is great! You will definitely lose more now that you are doing the Protein Shakes. I'd kill for a lean cuisine right about now!! I will try to find the Smashing Pumpkins--what a cute name! Thanks!

Hey Cindy,

I was wondering how everything was going.

16.2 lbs is GREAT!! I can't wait until I am on "the other side".lol:wink2:

Are you still walking?

Renita

Hey ladies, I am so happy for both of you. Today is my one month banding anniversary. I have lost 16.2 lbs since being banded and I can tell I have lost inches, I just haven't measured yet. I will be getting my first fill in a couple of weeks and I can't wait.

Thanks Renita! I am very pleased. I am still walking, I have missed a few days since going back to work but I am averaging 4 days a week. I am on the way out the door now to the walking track at the gym. I am going to wait one more week then add my Sweat'n to the Oldies. I think I will walk one day and do my video on the days I can't walk. Keep up the good work with your pre-op diet you are doing great. I only lost 5.5 lbs on my two week pre-op. You are doing great and your banding date will be here before you know it. :biggrin:

      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?
