I am in the single digits now! 9 days until my surgery!!! I am excited nervous and scared. I have cancelled 2 outings because I will be on the liquid diet and unsure how I would handle those situations! I am SO ready for this next phase of my life. I feel like I have a very bright future and my little 9 month old will one day say, who is that lady holding me?? Oh mommy that is you?? LOL!!!

I am SO glad I found this forum with such wonderful people!

Lynda - good luck, I'm seeing a surgeon today for my first consult so its exciting times. I am also worried about the pre op liquid diet as our life is sometimes hectic on the social front so timing for me will be something to fit in as well, but if I could I'd have it done tomorrow!!

Kabranda - good luck for your op....I'm feeling apprehensive for you already!!

Congrats! I am 11 days out and growing more nervous by the day. I am starting to have trouble sleeping with the anticipation of the surgery and preparing everyone at work for my time off. Things are so hectic!

      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.
