Heya!!! Just wanted to do a pop in to see how everyone is going with their weightloss (I'm hoping I'm keeping up with some of you as I have been struggling!!! haha), but this morning, I stood on my dodgy scales and I have FINALLY reached my first mini-goal of 20kgs!!! YAY!! I am actually starting to get excited now because I am starting to visibly notice a difference and I love it :) My Starting weight was 144kgs(316.8) My current weight is now 124kgs(272.8lb)!! (I have added some recent pics in my photo album).

How are you all doing?? Have you lost as much weight as you had hoped?? Would love to hear from you all! :D

44 lbs thats great:thumbup:. I was banded 5 days after you. I love my band. I just posted a thread under the May 2009 bandsters forum about our 6 month bandiversary this month asking how everyone was doing since it has been 6 months since we were all banded. I have lost as of today 57lbs so i am very happy if i could be down 60lbs by my bandiversary which is the 12 i will be half way to my goal (which i hope to reach by my one year bandiversary). I still feel like it is to good to be true like i am going to wake up one day and be 57lbs heavier again. Keep up the good work

I'm not a May bander but I wanted to say congrats to both of you on the weight loss. I hope I can say the same when I reach my 6 month anniversary. Both of you have encouraged me. Thanks.

Hello and thanks for checking in. I am just getting over the 40 pounds mark and feel good. I am not lossing quite as fast I had hoped because I continue to struggle with the diet part of things. Exercise-wise, I have just started to get into the beginning stages of some running, in addition to lots of walking, and that is something I never thought in my life I would be able to do!! :thumbup:

      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?
