52 today but feeling 25



Recommended Posts

It's my birthday and when I was sleeved at end of April, I never thought I would be here with my life so dramatically different - I am healthy, happy and looking and feeling great!

I may have to adopt a second birthday from next year on my sleeve date because it really has given me a rebirth which, at this age, is an unexpected and fantastic opportunity.So I intend to make the most of it.... watch out world!!!! x

Happy Birthday!!!! Since you're feeling 25 and looking great, I think that 2nd birthday should start with an age of 25!

Proudgrammy, u make me laugh! U don't look or sound as if u are heading for 60 (which is the new 40...) Thanks for the kind words about the best coming - I hope so ;-) recent years have been a bit tough....

U are so right about the fact that we all deserve the good life cos we do. This isn't easy, being sleeved, it's hard work and needs commitment. Support here is invaluable and it's great to be able to share the good and the less good and know that people understand and care.

So thanks for ur response, really appreciate it xx

      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.
