Hi

This is Laine. I'm from the UK and I was banded last November. I've lost two and a half stones since being banded. (Maybe more - havent been weighed since early February.

I'm also a member of a great site in the UK called Weight loss info. (WLSinfo). Perhaps some of you are too?

Best wishes to you all.

Laine:)

Heyas Laine, and a big warm welcome to ya. Where about are you from in the UK? My hubby (Dawg) is from Gosport but lives here in the states with me now.

There is a growing population of folks from the UK here at LBT, I'm sure you'll run into them soon.

Welcome! No connections to the UK other than several layovers in Heathrow and DH being detained there once, momentarily, because their Beagle Brigade couldn't tell the difference between drugs and a bag of granny smith apple slices. :paranoid

      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.
