Finally scheduled for May 14 and still can't decide...please you guys help me my doctor suggested bypass because of heartburn and I'm not too sure if I get it that often that I can agree with him. So to me I only get it when I make poor or spicy food choices so with taking that kind of stuff out of my diet which I'm already working on and don't have it very often do you think that sleeve would an option or should I just stick with bypass...

Yes I am scheduled for the pre-op class on Wednesday and yeah I got most chewables or the dissolve tabs a few of them are delicious the only one I'm struggling to find is B1..they suggested that I don't buy the liquid Centrum buy chewable which I did but I'm thinking I should buy the liquid as back up so if I have a problem with the chewable..do You agree .. -

Hi I use the south Sacramento site. It's wonderful I went to The 4 hour introduction class on March 17 got a same day appointment with the surgeon. Then he told me I had 10 pounds to lose. They want you to attend 1 nutrition class and 1 support group class and I did them both in the next 3 weeks I had to be with in 5 pounds of my goal before I can book with the psychologist my apt.is this Friday feels like it's moving along fast..
