Recommended Posts

Hello everyone I'm coming up to my surgery date and I'm starting to feel really nervous here. I'm 6ft 330 and I'm hope to get down to 220 I don't no how realalistic that is but I plan on giving it 110 percent to reach my goal.

Congrats on the best thing you are doing for yourself, it is worth it.

Realistic? YES, I am down 86lbs in 10 weeks post op. It can be done and your goal is very realistic.

Wow thats great Craig I'm glad to no that I'm not thinking out side the box. When you get a chance you have to tell me your secret to your success.

It's no secret really, I just made up my mind as you have and you will see the improvement.

For me:

No more snoring

No more CPAP

No more urinary incontinence(ugh always had to pee and hurry to find a mens room)

No more choleteral meds

No more high blood pressure

I am so happy watching the weight fall off

I'm getting sleeved June 7 also. I need to shed 80 lb. I'm 5'7'' and 240.

If all goes as planned, I fly into San Diego, then Tijuana for surgery with Dr Kelly that afternoon. I'm very excited to finally get really started on my weight loss. There's scared too but gotta do it.

      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?
