I am into my 3rd month of a 6 month supervised diet. I am riding my recumbent bike as much as possible (bad knees). I am trying to maintain a 14000-1700 calorie or so and am losing some weight. I have lost 15 lbs so far, so will now slow it down a bit. I really am only required to lose about 12 lbs. I must say I am really trying to eat healthy in preparation for the rest of my life. And it's pretty easy. I do still have a bit of ice cream once in a great while or a cookie or a Hershey's miniature. But this is rare. My Snacks are 100 calorie prepackaged snacks. Lots of fruits and veggies has helped too. I am determined to get the band next spring and will do what it takes to get me there. Tonight is my sleep over for the apnea thing. Yeah I can hardly wait.

This is the time you start implementing changes in your diet and exercise, or to introduce new habits and begin cutting out the bad stuff...The time to show your commitment to change your ways So use your nutritional counseling to get into position with knowledge about things you can do today to make a difference and how you need to eat after the banding etc. It can be a great education.

      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?
