Recommended Posts

So my day is rapidly approaching which is crazy considering how long the 4mts to get here felt like. I'm still suffering from self doubt - can i do this. is this the right thing.. how will i live with out my food. I decided this morning to accept all those crazy feeling as part of the Norm.. and as to can i do this - why YES i can.. how is every one else coping or am i alone in the crazy :P

i think everyone has episodes of "self doubt".... i am just beginning my journey and won't be banded until feb/march...but i have all of it planned as i get closer to freedom... i will be emptying out my pantry cabinets, and fridge of any and all things that could stand in the way... starting new and fresh... i live alone so it won't be hard to do that....as for my thoughts if you have children/spouse in the home...if they aren't having issues with weight then i would have a selected area for them to keep things that i surely won't want to have access to and have it under lock and key until i am in control of me... i would hope that if you have a significant other they would want to support you by learning to eat healthier as well and then you could forego the above mentioned necessity ... but either or...i wish you the best on your new journey and look forward to seeing your accomplishments along the way....

      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?
