You'll do great! Just remember the first week or so might be rough. But it's all worth it :-) Good Luck :-)

Good-luck! Just like CarrieP said you may have a rough 1st week, I unfortunately had a harder time, but hang in there no matter what it does get easier. Hopefully you will just have a smooth recovery! I wish I would have had Unjury chicken Soup, unflavored and strawberry sorbet Protein powders during my 1st month. The protein powders I use to love prior to surgery, I could not stand them after.

      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.
