Hi all any Sydney Sleevers here, pre-op or post-op..??

Here's my story:

I got Sleeved on the 19th June in Sydney Australia. I am still suffering shoulder tip pain but better than in Hospital, I cannot eat more than a 3 teaspoons of puréed chicken Soup so I'm going to make another batch of soup but more brothy and light. I started this journey @ 156kg on the 5th March and weighed in on the morning of the surgery the 19th of June @ 146kg now I weigh 138kg.. The funny thing is I don't feel 18kg lighter..!! All in all I feel positive am doing my darnedest to walk as much as I can and I cannot wait for FIJI in September..

      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.
