@@bubbz333 if you get called by the Bariatric department once your pcp sent the referral I wouldn't stress .If your BMI is 40 you don't need any co morbidities .You qualify on that alone . Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

@@PrinceVanHalen thanks for your advice too .I am just like you I want to lose weight fast and my Surgeon did tell me I will more weight and faster with the bypass .I do have a sugar problem that's my number one thing I can't stay away and breads.I don't want to lose weight and gain it back then what's a the point of surgery .I want to limit what I put in my mouth so it won't come back with proper exercise .And once again I agree with you if I'm having the surgery I might as well dive in .Its not like I have a second chance at this .

@@achappex3 thank you so much.I agree their is no need to change my plumbing I'm fine in all areas .I just want to lose as much as possible.I am willing to do the work to keep it off.My surgeon did say that I will lose more weight with the bypass like 20 pounds and faster .But I'm still stuck .I just don't want to be sick in the long run .Thanks again your advice was everything to me.

I'm in the same boat .Met with my surgeon and I have a 10 pound goal .Im having a hard time and it's only been day three.So let's support each other to reach goal . Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Do they schedule you for the classes or they schedule you for them ? Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

I wanted to find out if you can have GI issues and still qualify for a bypass or sleeve?My stomach digest slow for the first hour and after that my food digest fine.But I'm scared when I meet my surgeon they will say I can't do should I be freaking out or still think positive about it ?My GI Doctor got me feeling like this because he said it may be an issue .But you can have congestive heart failure and still qualify.

I got my answer and now I know that I am a candidate for both i can have the sleeve or the bypass and now I don't know which one to pick . Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

@@kc13 how was it I'm going next Thursday ? Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

I'm going to orientation on the 29th of this month so I am not sure but I want to find out myself . Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

So as I'm excited about this process and know I'm going to love the new me I chose to tell people about the surgery my friends that is and I get the feeling that most or not all are jealous and say negative things like you can die from having that surgery or you don't need it stop being lazy .It hurt my feelings so bad I decided to keep everything that I'm doing by myself .I thought people would be happy and they are not .How do you deal with that ?
