Everything went well just having trouble sleeping due to incisions. I can only eat Jello and like a teaspoon of it. Just started my Vitamins. Taking things slow. I drank my pain meds too fast and almost barfed but managed to keep it in. well thats all I have for now. Hope you are all doing well.

Congrats, I was sleeved on the 14th. It seems so long ago now. Its gets a lil tough but try to hang in there and do what the dr tells you. The People up here will guide you and encourage you through your process.

The Water is tough to get in, but I cannot stress enough how important it is to just keep sipping and keep yourself hydrated.

Glad to hear you are doing well, and congratulations on the beginning of a healthier you!

      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.
