I can no longer hold the car steering wheel In place with my belly! There's about 2" in between now :):):)

That's great! I noticed a similar thing about holding the steering wheel steady with the top of my thigh. It's so awesome, isn't it?

I have the same NSV! I actually took a picture of it and sent it to my 2 best friends because I was so happy about it!

I remember when I looked down to see about 4 inches between me and the steering wheel that was rubbing on my stomach. I also looked down and saw my fly (you know, the top of my pants). I think the biggest one was when I slid into a booth with room to spare.

Booths used to scare me.

Shoes are too big!

Ring is sliding off!

Don't have to use a seat belt extender!

Can sit at more booths!

This is my MOST WANTED NSV. I cannot wait to be able to go and sit in a booth. It's a huge fear of mine, going out wondering if they're gonna have booths or tables. :(

I had to stop wearing my weddings rings. They were sliding off. Losing weight is fun! But losing my wedding rings would be devastating.

Yeah watch for that, I was At work and pulled on something an my ring flew off my finger it took an hour and 3 of us to find it. I went to Walmart and got a ring snuggie till I finish losing.

What is a ring snuggie? I know what a ring guard is, is this different? I'll have to check that out.

I guess it's the same thing. It is a little rubber thing that goes on the back of your ring. It came in a little package with 6 different sizes.

      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.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
