I'm thrilled. My parents wombs be back until june 2013 and when they see they are going to be very excited. I have not told anyone about the surgery except my husband and my mother in law.

I am very excited for you, I just got approval last Thursday, I have a pre-op appointment on the 11th of December and they told me they would schedule surgery at that time. Seems like I have been jumping hoops forever, now that it is almost here I have some fears. Good luck to you, I will follow your story.

Thanks Joan. My doctor appointment is on Monday at 2:45 and is when I would also find out my surgery date. Right now I'm working very hard on focusing on my healthy diet that my NUT put me on, along with working full time, taking college class (next week is finals), and taking care of my hubby and my girls. Thank God I have a very supporting husband that is learning all my new way of eating. I feel so happy that I got approve and that soon I will start a new journey. My goal is to lost 60 pounds by my birthday

April 26 and to be close to my weight loss goal by August that is when I graduate. Best of luck in your journey and keep in touch.

      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.
