Howdy! I spent last week in Nags Head, NC with my parents, adopted sister (house #1), brother, SIL, 6 nieces/nephews (house #2), and another group of 8 that included 3 children under the age of 2 (house #3). As you are reading this post, I'm sure that you are re-reading the title of this post to verify that I did, indeed, have a great vacation. :yikes:

We went dolphin watching, climbed a lighthouse, shopped, swam, dined out, etc., etc. Even though the temps were at least 92 degrees or higher with a heat index of 105+ everyday, I was able to keep up without any problems! :) I actually was not the largest person on the beach (or even in my group). It was a great feeling looking at the pics of my vacation and not being completely disgusted with my appearance.

PS~ I even lost 3 pounds while on my trip. :)

I actually had to reread the top to be sure I hadn't written it. I was in the outer banks first of June and I must say it is my fav place. I too was not as worried about how I looked and it was great to have clothes I can breathe in. I lost 3 pounds on vac. Had a fill the week I got back and haven't lost anything else. Glad your vacation was a sucess.

Congrats to both of you. I love the Outer Banks. I haven't been there is a few years, but it was a wonderful place to go with extended family. There is something for everyone there.

I don't go on vacation until the end of July. We're headed to Cape Cod this year, but I hope I can write the same post when we get back.

I just got back from clubmed. They have Breakfast, lunch and dinner buffets. My portions were a little large, but ate the right things. Higher in fat then I usually eat, but all lowcarb. I gained 1 pound (hopefully Water retention). I was very proud of myself for resisting the bread, rice and Desserts.< /p>

      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.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
