:D I'm also getting sleeved 5/22!

Yes... time is really speeding up. I'm trying so hard to get everything in order at work to be out for 2 weeks, and that seems to make time go by even faster!

Yes I'm very excited. I did my pre op on Wed. That's when it really hit me. You have to do so much to prepare urself then when the time does come it hits ya.

Yes! I started my 2 week pre-op diet on Wednesday, and when I got home from work and all of my Vitamins and such were sitting at my door step it made it so very real! My pre-op is next Friday. I completely hear you on the when the time hits you, you get every emotion coming through your mind, but I am so ready for this anything negative is quickly put to rest.

Yay! We're Sleeve Siblings!! :D

I go to pre-op next Thursday. I keep feeling what I think at first is fear, but if I stop and let myself explore the "fear" feeling further, I realize I'm not scared at all. I think I'm just ready to go and excited and grateful! Like, fall-on-my-knees-tears-of -joy-grateful. I'm also really curious about what the whole experience will be like. It's definitely an adventure!!

That's exactly how I feel. My sister had it done in 2011 she lost 150 pounds and pretty much still maintains.

      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.
