Mimi - So how was the first few weeks of learning how to eat again? For some reason this has me a bit anxious. I liken this to being an infant and only able to take in small amounts of liquids, and just like babies, we'll be spitting up all the time. However, I'm willing to go through this process to gain control - ya know!?

Best of wishes with your first fill. I hear it isn't bad at all. The needle is thin and some doctors even use a local anesthetic.

      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.
