Today was day 13 for me and I was able to walk a little distance outside, got a little dizzy coming back to the house but made it back. I felt really good today. Still sore around the port area and one incision but other than that all is great. First 6 days were horrible and I was asking myself "why did I do this"? Today, I would do it all over again!!!

That's too funny that the first couple say 9 days because I was going to say the same thing. I'm actually 9 days today and I feel pretty great! I slept through the entire night without waking up from pain and I got out of bed without pain. I knew it was going to be a great day at that point! So far, I would definately say day 9 for me is a great day! :)

Glad to hear feeling better is just around the corner. Today is day 3 for me and I am sick of all these blended foods. I can barely eat anything. Cannot wait for the other 6 or so days to come!!

      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.
