I went through exactly the same things I think maybe it is an allergy to the glue and the healing process. It was horrible for about a week. The above things mentioned all helped me. I also gained and freaked out, six pounds at the same time out as you followed by a crazy long stall. Good news is it broke and I started losing very fast again. Nothing would have helped me feel better at the time, but I promise you aren't going to fail. Hang in there and let your body heal. It will get better.

      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.
