Hi all!

I was sleeved 20 days ago, and am looking for a buddy. I've posted threads with questions and concerns, and the responses I've gotten are priceless. Thank you!

I'm from Los Angeles, and am in the process of looking for a local support group. I need all the support I can get, so I'm reaching out to a buddy here too. I currently don't have a cell phone, but we can chat via email and Facebook. Email: Brisamari@aol.com. You can look me up in facebook under Maria Carbajal.

Thank you and God bless you all with much health and peace!

I am 4 days post op and I am struggling with food and Water issues. Very little of what I am allowed to eat or drink pass for food. Several "foods" are already making me gag. On the bright side, my stomach/abdomen are less sore each day and I am feeling a little stronger every day. However, I am talking to myself and telling myself to just "hang" in there and I wil be fine.

I would enjoy chatting with you or any other "newbies" in the group.

      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.
