It feels so good. This surgery has changed my life. Weather it be the lap band itself or the fact that I decided to change my life and actually am doing it. For the first time in a long time, probably since 6th grade which was like 17 years ago, I feel good about myself. My depression which I have had since about then is gone. I am going to the gym and doing kickboxing and actually enjoying it. Even though I feel my weightloss is a little slow, my body is changing and I feel good. I have to say I was so miserable before surgery I thought about ending things a few times a month, but since surgery I have not had one negative thought. Sorry for my sob story, but I felt I needed to share. Everyone keep up the great work!

Wow! I see that you got your band like only four days before me and your amount of lbs. lost is twice as much as mine. What are some of your secrets?

Congratulations! It is exciting to fit into smaller sizes. I bought a small sized sweater and some size 6 jeans at a yard sale the other day, so I have something to push for, for next Winter. I'm in size 12-16 jeans now. I can still wear at least one of my size 16's.

SO AWESOME!!!! Congrats!!!!! Feels so GREAT to get into smaller clothes.

Yesterday I tried on a shirt getting ready for work and realized it was WAY too big for me. I haven't worn it in awhile...thinking it was going to be too small!! Thank God I had some XL tops already that I keep from a few years ago. I'm starting to build a pile of clothes in the spare bedroom to pack up for the Good Will. laugh.gif I'll need to go shopping soon. biggrin.gif

      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?
