Today has been full of wins for Steve the sleeve and I!

Win #1 - I decided to treat myself to a birthday coffee - win! Other than the fact that I order fat free sugar free and it was whole milk and tons of sugar (I only drank about 4 sips) it didn't bother my sleeve! Winning!

Win #2 - I've been having serious trouble getting my Protein and fluids in - it's no secret to anyone that has read any of my posts. So, imagine my surprise when I FINISHED my entire Atkins Protein Bar for Breakfast, then a couple hours later my entire 11oz Atkins Protein shake , and then for lunch I ate two fat free cheese sticks and 2oz of the same turkey that made me vomit last night.

Win #3 - I've got my Protein in for the day, and I've got about 40oz of my fluids in WITHOUT nausea! I know it doesn't sound like much, but any of you who know how much I've been struggling with all of this will understand... It's the little things!

*does a happy dance while singing* Happy Birthday to me! I think I'll treat myself to a SF popsicle when I get home ;-)

AWESOME!!!! I know those "little things" must seem huge to you! I definitely think a celebratory SF popsicle is warranted! Hope it all just keeps getting better and better for you!

I got my surgery date yesterday - March 20! Can't wait to join you on the loser's bench!

Happy Birthday! And yes, those little things mean the world! For instance - last night I took my chewable multi's and for the first time, they made me slightly nauseous. I was bummed that it started happening, but a little voice in my head said, "Remember, sf popsicles fix everything!" I remembered that from your youtube video. So I had a sf popsicle and it totally took the nausea away!!! It was like a little miracle. :)

      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.
