I have been reading your posts- you have helped me make my choice.

Dec 4th is RIGHT around the corner. I cannot wait to watch your journey. Please keep posting.

Are you doing anything now to prepare? I gave up diet coke and trying to not drink while eating. I think that is hard and trying to sip and not use straws.

Are you going alone or taking someone for support?

Aw thanks! I LOVE diet coke! Lol the whole idea of not eating/drinking at same time is hard for me. I drink a lot when I eat. :(

I am trying to prepare mentally most of all. I am getting in a few foods (mostly carbs) that I know I will not be able to have for a while, but not over doing it.

I am going alone. Hubby has to work and kids have school. But alma knows I am alone and she is gonna take good care of me :) plus, the only time I will really be alone is at the hotel any way.

I will post as much as I can as I go along. I M trying to get some Xmas shopping done too 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.
