I was exactly here just 2 weeks ago... working out all the time and eating less ( though it seemed like it was just about what i was eating before) and then i finally hit a good spot. 8.5 cc's and i am a loosing machine all of a sudden... nothing all month and then 7 lbs in the past 2 weeks.. that was what i lost as a total for the last three months! loving the fill.. i didn't think i'd make it here but now that i am i am thrilled. it will happen. i didn't believe it but i do now.

I'm so glad you had the guts to say this. I am at the same point as you and I go to support groups and others at the same point (6 month out) have lost twice my 30 pounds and it is frustrating. I know I am cheating (I have issues with chocolate withdrawl, Ha!) and haven't kept up with the exercise like I should, so I will keep trying to plug along. I figure its better than gaining 30 pounds in 6 months! Keep up the struggle, I'm there with you. Steady but sure.

      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.
