I am a little over four weeks out of surgery and I am down 33 pounds, which is great! Even better, I am down to 1 blood pressure pill a day. I was on four prior to surgery! My blood pressure on this one pill is perfect! I really think I will be medication free soon! I really didn't think I would get this healthy so fast. what a great feeling!

Great feeling! Congratulations!

It's nice to get up in the morning and say to yourself, "Let's see, what meds do I have to take this morning?...Oh yeah, ....nothing!" I have a feeling you are almost there. :)

Thank you so much! It is a great feeling! More than looks or clothes or anything else, I was worried about my health and heart. My father died after having his third heart attack almost four years ago. I owe it to my family and myself to take care of myself!

As of yesterday, I am now medication free of my blood pressure medications! I guess my doctor was wrong about that last pill! My blood pressure dipped really low this weekend on that last pill and we had to drop it. I couldn't be more excited and already feel more energetic today without it! Those pills can really drag you down and make it even more difficult to do the things you need to do to be healthy!

      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.
