Couldn't be happier.



Recommended Posts

So after a six month period of dietary counseling, research, and preop testing, my husband and I both got sleeved on 12/19. Like most people, we had second thoughts right before and right after the surgery, but we both are now delighted by our results. We are working the program and he has lost 45 and I am at 38 lbs since our first visit in May 2012. There is still work to be done but I feel like a new person. I wish to extend my thanks to all on the forum. Many of my questions were answered and there are so many stories of successes that have lent encouragement. Happy and healthy 2013 to all my fellow sleevers!

My wife and I both had surgery, me with the sleeve, her with a Gastric Bypass. She has met and passed her goal, I am 1 pound away.

We hug a lot. We are having a hard time getting used to our arms going all the way around. :D

      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.
