My surgery is April 8 and it seemed like it was still way out there until I got the email with all my pre-op apps and took a look at how many weekends I have left to get everything done and ready! Glad there is a group of us all doing it around the same time. Nice to be able to vent/ stress with folks in the same boat !

I'm getting mine done April 8th, start my pre-opt diet Monday! I'm nervous, excited and scared all in one! Of course I am scared of the surgery and the fear I won't wake up (sure it's natural to feel that way), and scared and nervous of the pain. Scared and nervous that I'll have complications, and excited because if all those things I fear doesn't happen, I'll have a new life! I'm keeping my mind on the "I'm getting a new life" lol. .

I'm scheduled for April 5th and I share the same feelings. I'm so excited but nervous at the same time.

looks like there's quite the group of us getting sleeved on April 8 (Curvey, KatieOkieDokie, Happy01, me - who am I missing?)

I finally got around to trying a protien shake this weekend. OMG.. it was horrible! My husband picked it up at the Vitamin Shoppe - brand was Robb something maybe? The brand didn't look familiar to me at all from posts on here, so I'm hoping that means that the others everyone talks about really are better!!

I have not tried any of them yet.. I really need to be sampling to find the best kind since that will be my life for a couple of weeks. I was very glad to see this page created so that I can keep up with some of the others that are very close to me. I am just curious how many are having the surgery in the states or in Mexico?

      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.
