I had surgery in 2005. Lost 80 pounds, but, did t hit my target weight. I was up and down by 10 pounds. I am a diabetic and my Dr. put me on Ozempic before everyone learned about the weight loss powers of this drug. I even had trouble getting my meds because everyone wanted it. However, I lost an additional 20 pounds. No more. My body is staying right where it wants to be. I’d like to lose another 10 pounds to hit my goal, but, it isn’t happening. My Dr. explained to me that Diabetics don’t lose the same amount of weight that non diabetics do. I will be on this drug for the rest of my life for Diabetic reasons only. I know if got off of the main topic, but, when I did put on weight (before the Ozempic) it was totally my own fault. Also, before and after my surgery I had to meet with a Nutritionist and Psychiatrist. That part is really important. Good luck.

Hi, @dlc1953 - you mentioned that you met with a nutritionist and a psychiatrist before and after your weight loss surgery and that that is really important.

Will you talk more about how your meetings pre- and postsurgery with these professionals were helpful to you?
