The last thread I posted was titled "How many do you have"? Referring to how many goals you may have with your weight.

I said that my first goal was to get down to 200lbs even, no ounces. Well, I have hit that goal. I weight 200lbs and I am so excited.

I hope that all of you reach your goals!

The chart below starts for my 2nd goal of 150. I have currently lost 67 UNWANTED pounds

Hi Stacy,

I have gotten my first fill and felt good restriction for a couple of days then much less restriction from that time till now, a week out. I suspect I need another adjustment. I understand it's pretty much "poke and hope", and several adjustments may be needed until you have optimal restriction. How does optimal feel? How does too tight feel? Too loose I'm sure I'm feeling, but any description you can give will be appreciated.

Thanks,

Robin

CONGRATULATIONS!! Hope to join you in a couple of months.

Soshal, I know what too full feels like! You cant even swallow your own spit and it feels like a huge rock in your chest. I had to have an unfill and literally it felt like that rock melted away in a matter of a couple of seconds. What relief!

      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?
