Another reason I love my gastric sleeve



Recommended Posts

Just got back from Disney World where at 3 months post op I fit on ALL the rides comfortably and discovered Tower of Terror doesn't feel the same. No butterflies in my stomach since I don't have much of a stomach. Instead all I could feel on the drops was the sensation I was flying!! Really fun!!! And I didn't mind posing for family photos

We went to WDW last December and I remember thinking "this is the last time I will be here obese". I'm not sleeved yet but just waiting on the all clear from the insurance.

How did you do with your meals during your vacation?

Disney food was too rich for me. So I took food and kept at the hotel. Once a day we drove to panda express or chickfila. At panda the single serving of an entree is prefect size. At chickfila the 4 piece grilled nuggets and fruit is good. Good luck with surgery!

      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.
