Well my surgery date is Jan 10th and I am soo excited to start a new life. I am excited for myself and the new life I will have and enjoy with my young children. I am drastically over weight with a BMI of 51 how I let myself get to this is scarry but I have struggled with my weight since my late teens and I have had an extremely rough last couple years qith leaving my husband and starting a new live with the kids and I, and now its time to deal with me....my weight...I want to be active and enjoy my kids and I'm all they have!

I don't know anyone that has had this surgery and I hope I can get some support and new friends to get through the life changes together. I start my pre op. diet on Dec 28th, and I have to say I am enjoying my favorite foods right now before I make my life change, like the last supper...lol...I'm ok with it as I need to make this life change to enjoy my future but for the moment I will enjoy a christmas dinner with my family and all the fixings knowing that my life is about to change and I can't wait!

Please I would love to meet people that have had the surgery or about to and support each other through our exciting new step in life!

Happy Holidays to everyone!

      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.
