A reflection of a year!



Recommended Posts

Well people..... Today is my one year anniversary! I must begin by boasting.......I walk an hour a day (uphill one-half of the time..down hill the other) thank God! I also write everything down...I am now on my "lap-band journal #4". I probably don't keep the most accurate books, but I will say I have been loyal. Free days .....yes I've had a few....drunk days...yes I've had a few....fun days....yes I have had many, but most of all I will say exercise days! Mind you I really don't like it , but somehow it has gotten into me.....when it is summer it is 7:00 IN THE A.M.....In the winter, it is two times a day for 30 minutes! Wow that is crazy! The other thing is I was on a platue (which I learned how to spell really, really good) for about 3 months, did not lose a pound, but I went down 3 sizes.....as I sit hear in a lose size 14 heading on to 13 (by the way I am 5'9") I have to tell ya it has been worth every single second! Journaling, exercising, and eating to your height , weight, and age....make a huge diff......Happy Bandiversary to me! Peace out and party on.......!

      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?
