Hey it's not time to start panicking, you have just begun your journey. You have a lot of Water retention from the IV's that your body is hanging on to. So this is the time to take a deep breath, let it out and sit back and enjoy the ride! you will be dropping weight really soon. Your body is in shock from the trauma to your stomach. Be kind to yourself and stop weighing yourself so much. It will come off, I promise. This is an experience most of us here have had. Make sure your walking and getting in as much Fluid as you can. You have lost 18lbs in 12 days! That's totally awesome! When was the last time you lost 18lbs in 12 days? I hope you don't think I'm being snarky but I just want to reality check with you. You are doing great! :)

The key to sanity is not to weigh every day. That just makes it worse. Keep in mind that the sleeve isn't going to make you loose weight. You have to start making the plan and planning the work. Once you start adding back a reasonable amount of nutrition, you will see weight coming off. Try to relax and focus on getting through the next few weeks, staying hydrated etc.

      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.
