Congratulations. I hope you have a wonderful lapband journey. Make sure and let us know how everything goes. Make sure and have a little pillow for the ride home for getting in and out of the car and any little bumps. Again, congratulations.

You will do great. Use a heating pad on your stomach starting on day 2 for a few days - it saved me. Relax and enjoy some down time and get lots of sleep. Let us know how it goes!!!!

I am in Maryland. I'm feeling a lot better today. I just had some chicken and stars Soup and I'm about to have some chocolate pudding. My incisions aren't as sore today. I'm still tired.

      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.
