Hello!

I am new to all of this. I am schuduled for surgery on 2-9-10. I am so excited!!!!! I am also nervous of the outcome. Prior to this I had to totally change my eating habits. I now understand what it means to eat the right foods and make better choices. I am human and may have snack every once in a while. I know to stay on task.. I must remember to my plan meals all the time.

I am wondering with the band how does it feel after surgery? Also with being on a liquid diet in the begining will you loose wait as well? I hope someone can answer these questions...... Wish me luck! This is a new me I say... I will post pics tonight... :)

Thanks

Toiya

Hi Toiya, I can't tell if you've just had your surgery on Feb 9 or if you're scheduled for Aug 2. In any case, congratulations.

Everybody feels things differently. I had quite a lot of referred pain from my diaphragm to my left shoulder, but other than that I felt good.

Keep posting and all the best with it!

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.
