That is great news!

I am hoping to be sleeved by Dr Kelly & may request for late April or early May, but no date yet.

I just had tonsillectomy & uvullectomy yesterday, so recovering from that, before I book another surgery!

Thanks Diva you have always been an inspiration...I've been a lurker on these boards mostly because i felt i had nothing to contribute until i really knew i could actually finance the surgery. I can't wait for my life to change... I spent last night on obesityhelp for over an hour and a half looking through all the before and after photo's and it's so true that every picture i saw the after there was that spark and that smile and confidence that shown through that all of us overweight people have in us. I can't wait to have my before and after... !!!!!!!!!

Sharon hope your recover goes well from your surgeries :D Maybe if it works out we can be sleeve sisters... my hubby will be coming with me although i keep telling him that he really doesn't have to come, he insists, not that i blame him if it were him going to a foreign country i wouldn't ever let him go alone :-) Dr. Kelly from all my research is my number one choice..No. 2 would have been DR. Aceves because of all the rave revues.. but i can't spend that much and feel just as confident with kelly.

Now i've really got to get in here and research alot since it's really happening and soon.. yipeee!!! :lol:

      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.
