I had my two week post-op visit today. Including my two week pre-op diet, I have lost 21 pounds! I am so happy. 21 pounds in 4 weeks. Having battled weight all of my adult life, I was so afraid that for some reason this just would not work for me. Well, thank God it is. Dr. is very happy and wants me to slowly ease into regular food over the next week. He said I am doing so good, no problems, he wants me on regular food as quick as my body will tolerate it. I realize I have a long way to go but I just had to share.

I'm so happy to hear about your 21lbs. Congrats! Good Work! :D

You sound the way I did when I finally saw the scale go down and I lost weight. I sounded and felt the same way you do.

      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?
