Congratulations!

Now remember:

1) It really does get better every day, by leaps and bounds.

2) Sip, sip, sip. Your number one goal right now is to stay hydrated!

3) Walk when you can manage it, as much as you can manage without burning out.

4) Don't be afraid to take your pain meds, but if you don't need them, don't take them.

5) Do EVERYTHING the doctor tells you to do, even if it seems weird or stupid.

You'll be shedding the pounds like crazy in no time flat! :biggrin0:

Home and feeling good. Sipping my Water and walking. Still using pain meds and suffering a little nausea, but nothing unbearable.

Thanks to all of you.

      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.
