Now I just need to work on getting the scale to move. I'm down 14 but seeing it stuck for a couple days is buggin!!!!!!!!

I had my sleeve on 3/7/13 and I am down 20#. But have dizziness and no energy. I added power aide to help with the light headed feelings. Not much pain but I am hungry, I want to eat.

I was telling lain privately that I had a food meltdown last night. Not bc I wanted to cheat but just because of the finality of the way I used to and loved to eat. I knew this would be difficult emotionally in ways I coulfnt fathom pre op, and I was so right. For the first little bit we may regret this decision. Until we are retrained. And then we will be free.

I'm up 2.4 pounds today than yesterday and i don't even care. I just want to heal and get past the food addiction. Weight loss is a bonus.

      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.
