My WLS Center (Swedish in Seattle) has reached out to me yesterday to participate in promotional material (web site and flyers) in addition to upcoming TV spot. What a wonderful validation of WLS as a solution for morbid obesity!! It will be so much fun and there is also swag and incentives that come with doing it. :)

I have not told anyone at work about my WLS nor have I seen more then one person on my team face to face in the last 12 months (work @ home and not traveling on business due to tighter controls). I told her at a lunch that my transformation was from high Protein, low carb diet and running / cross fit ( she does both types of exercise also). I guess the cat will be out of the bag after these upcoming events. <grin>. Danger: Uncharted territory! Lol.

Thanks everyone!

The rewards of post op success far out weigh the little inconveniences along the way. Living life now and not afraid to get out there and give back to others as well as enjoy all the new experiences. My success is really the culmination of feedback and guidance from all of you. We can continue the long trail of successes on VST by keeping it a positive, fun and energetic experience for everyone. Reading daily certainly keeps both my spirits and motivation up.

Removing morbid obesity and evil clutches of unhealthy eating from my life and replacing it with a fit and meaningful daily existence has really set me free to have a positive influence on the world around me.

      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.
