Hi I'm Jan. 10th!

I can't believe it's actually 2 weeks away. My surgeon didn't require me to do a 2 week liquid diet. I was required to lose 10% of excess weight. I still need to lose 4 lbs by the 2nd to reach that goal. So tomorrow I'm going to start 2 Protein drink and sensible dinner/ per day.

I've tasted a few Protein powders and found that I like Syntrax Nectars. They mix really easy with a spoon and don't have an after taste.

Trying to get my family ready ( I refuse to cook until I get to purée stage at least lol)

So far not nervous , just really excited. We have a family trip to Hawaii in July and for the first time in years I'm actually looking forward to hanging out by a pool. If I have a 50 lb weight loss by then I will be happy.

How is everyone else getting prepared ?

Saw my surgeon today,so excited... Received the preop packet, I asked the doctor if I needed to bring a heating pad, pillow etc. he said no, that they will supply everything I need.... Does anyone have any suggestions of what I may need so I can ask for it.

Awesome! What is it like drinking? Does it feel different to you? Can you only drink a little at a time?

It feels weird drinking, I can only handle a little at a time... But the gas moving around really really hurts.

      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.
