So glad to hear this! If you're worried about a bowel movement add some benefiber or Miralax to your Water. Most other things cause colon spasms and make you use abdominal muscles that don't wanna be moved after being cut on. And take a pillow or stuffed animal with you to hold tight against your stomach when you try to go, the pressure keeps your stitches intact.

So happy you're feeling better!

      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.
