I have a picture of mine also but not like that. Mine is a colored picture and clearly shows my internal organs and the Lap Band around them. My surgeon gives 1 to every patient as a keepsake:)

Life,

Thanks for sharing your insides with us.

You have no idea how much that actually helps me visualize (well duh, I just saw a picture) of what my insides must look like too. This helps me understand just how little the "pouch" area is and how to relate that to Portion Control and I'm almost a year banded!

Every surgeon should give one of these to their patients right at the start. What a great tool!

Thanks and good luck to you as you start your journey.

      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.
