How many times have I pondered this question? Well after a long time reviewing it watching the actual surgeries on line talking to others on this site. The Sleeve is the way to go for the long haul!!!! I am scheduled for sugery on 2/24/10 and I have started the pre-Op diet and so far doing well. I have been to the gym 6 days in a row and feel better than ever. My wife and I are getting up at 4:00 am having Decalf (Yuk) read our bibles for about a half hour or so and then head to the gym. Spend about 40-45 minutes doing cardio Tread mill or Eliptical, and some weights. Head home shower and I have to fix a shake for Breakfast while my wife who is fit, 5 miles a day type of person can eat anything. I can't wait to show her up some day.... Ha! Well anyway I have shakes for breakfast and lunch for these 2 weeks and at dinner eat lean and green type meals. The nutritionist told me to put a watch at the top of my plate and what ever is on my plate for dinner analyze it and devise a way to eat it in 1/2 hour. My normal mode is WOLF, so this is hard. Yesterday I left half a pork chop on the plate and I remember when 3 were normal, eating slowly really works. My plan is to keep a log of my journey weather anyone reads it or not it will keep me focused on the end game. Well time to go....

      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.
