The more you move the faster the gas will come out. Do you have some gas-x? It will help. Be kind to yourself. He is a very good surgen.

Are you able to move around and sit up unassisted? I am not yet banded and am trying to learn everything I can about it. I have had my gallbladder removed via lap and I think I moved around just fine, although I was only 24 when that happened so youth was on my side. I'm now 30 and concerned about the discomfort

Hi Llene

How r u ? I am feeling pretty well have had some pain in the incisions but not much. Only thing is I am feeling kind of hungry already not sure if normal but will address it on Tuesday when I see Dr. Choi, I also weighed myself today and was up 1 pound from surgery hard to believe since I've only been taking liquids and Jell-O

      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.
