I'm being banded today by Dr. Chock. I went to a seminar last summer and today is finally the day. It is strange because I feel somewhat the same way that I did when I decided to quit smoking. Like I am mourning a little for my old, unhealthy but familiar life. And at the same time excited to see what I can accomplish with help from being banded.

I'm banded! Home and sore but doing very well. So much easier than the 2 c-sections and 1 kidney stone surgeries I've had before. No sickness post op either. Thanks for all the concern and prayers from everyone

Got banded yesterday. A little discomfort right now, but nothing too terrible. I just need to walk a bit more. Good luck to you all...

      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.
