Good luck tomorrow! Remember to walk walk walk in the days after your surgery!!!

As far as getting "stuck"...for me it feels like there is something sitting in my chest. I have only been stuck once so far, and it was a good lesson to learn. Don't worry about negative "what ifs", though, just concentrate on how great you will look/feel in the months to come! :smile2:

It went well overall. No gas pains, soreness at the incisions but I have Lortab to help. I have no appetite and have only had a few sips of Water today and yesterday.

      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.
