So today I had my consultation with my surgeon today and everything went great. I thought I had my mind set on the sleeve but the dietician said go with the bypass so thats what I'll be doing. I went straight to the market to buy healthy foods since I start my 6months of nutrition classes next month. Seems like forever but I know I know that it'll be worth it [emoji4]

Welcome and congratulations! I too switched from sleeve to bypass because I suffered from severe reflux.

I am 22 months post op and have been at goal since March of this year.

That 6 months will go by super fast and is a great opportunity to change behaviors and set yourself up for success. Trust me, getting a handle on it early will certainly make for a better long term result.

Best of luck to you!

Wow thank you. Do u still have severe reflux? I am def working on my diet and actually chewing my food. Surprises me how full I get now. Never know how slowing down while eating was so important. How was your pain after surgery?

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
