Not following my surgeons recommendations....

BECAUSE he keeps thinking I had Gastric Bypass and not the Sleeve! My 6 month check up is this week and I'm not even excited for it. Starting weight 276 in January, Surgery weight April 15th 255 and current weight 199.5 (yay!) I've been told by my surgeon I'm not losing as fast as everyone else and to eat 3 meals a day with no snacks. Well too bad because I continue to eat 5 small healthy meals a day and I think I'm doing great so he can shut it! :)

    Seems fast to me. Seems to me the longer one goes super low cal, the more messed up the metabolism for life. Slow and steady is awesome.

  • ​Sounds pretty good to me and I DID have bypass! How annoying that he can't get that right! Read your dang notes! What if there was something else really important you needed him to remember? Dr'

Dr's get on my last nerve sometimes! I know they can't remember all of us, but that's why there is a medical file....

Are you sure he did the surgery you were expecting? Maybe he forgot which one he was suppose to do and did the bypass! What a douche.

Yes I've reminded him at previous post op appts then he reads his notes and says "oh yeah." He probably could have retired 10 years ago ;)
