I can't believe my surgery is the day after tomorrow! I thought the time would pass slowly but in fact it's been going by really fast. I've had a lot to do and today is no exception. I have my pulmonary testing today at 1:00, then my preop testing at the hospital at 2:00, and my preop appointment with my surgeon at 2:30. The hubby is tagging along today too as he has his pulmonary testing after me, at 2:00.

I am feeling a little nervous but not too bad! Might be worse tomorrow and the day of, I'm not sure. But I felt a lot more nervous before my consult than I do right now! Haha.

Got my Protein powder yesterday from Max Muscle. My choice was Peanut Butter fudge. It was the least sweet of the different flavors I tried.

Right now I am just looking forward to being on the other side of all this, coming home, resting. My best friend is coming in from Chicago to be with me for a whole week which will be awesome! Major Sex and the City marathon is going to happen (I've never watched the show and a friend lent me the whole series.)

Today I'm going to start packing my bags for the hospital! Whoo!:thumbup1:

Hope your final pre-op tests and packing go smoothly!

Best of luck with your surgery and recovery! The first couple of days might be lousy but it gets better quickly!!!

Woohoo to being so close ! ! ! I'm a huge SATC fan, and you'll love it. It's fun to identify with the characters, and kind of live vicariously through them LOL.

It's great your bestie will be with you. Best wishes to you and the husband on all your appointments today.

      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.
