Now you've got the idea!! Keep your spirits up, all the stress that worrying brings is not worth it. One small lapse does not mean you are doomed forever.

The first 10 lbs is now gone! Congratulations, you've officially kicked it into gear!

Keep smiling,

The great thing is, I've found that no amount of post-banding eating can compete with one of my pre-band binges. Even if I splurge and have something bad, it all adds up to an okay day. So long as the good days outnumber the bad and you're getting the Protein in, the weight will drop off!

Congratulations on the 10 lbs! :):D:D

Just remember you're still healing, so don't eat anything solid AND when you over eat that puts pressure on your new tummy.

Good luck.

Thanks HarleyNana, You are right, I feel like I can eat and without the restriction I guess I wasn't thinking about what culd be happening that I can't feel. This helps. It's weird, but just like my other addictions, I must be reminded of what I forget I know. Thanks.

      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?
