I have been hiding in the shadows for the past couple of months and i must say, i've learned a lot of things that otherwise would have made me second guess myself:ohmy: first impression... you all are great. it takes a great deal of pride and patients to post your thoughts and concerns in a way for others to understand and relive....alot of times i can pick up what i've read here and related that to most of my questions and concerns.

I was banded on December 31, 2008 my beginning weight was 363 and i'm down to 325 now and barely inching down:wink2:

PATIENTS...LOL i look forward to interaction with each of you during my journey.

Take care!!

Welcome and congrats on the band Dzynr. I wish you luck on your journey. I am glad you are learning from our post. Yes patience is definatly key. You have lost 38 lbs! That is awesome in such a short time.A lot of Dr.s think 1-3 lbs a week is good. You have exceeded that! Be proud in the amount you have lost so far. As many has said we don't gain overnight and we won't lose it overnight. So be patient.

Welcome to LBT. First off congrats on your weight loss. Your doing great. Its a heck of a lot easier putting on the weight. Remember exercise is key to keep the weight loss moving. (even if it is just a nice walk everyday). Have a good one and good luck on your journey.:)

      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.
