Walking! Get out and walk! When I start feeling the pain i know it's time for my 15 min walk. Sure enough pain abates and I feel happier. My surgery was 6/7. Give it a shot - walk slow but get out and move. I do it 4 times a day- goal is 6 times a day as dr suggested 4-6 times a day.

I still feel very confident in all of this. I have my weak moments. I was only eating 3 times a day and just realized I should be eating 6. I can have Clear Liquids, sf Popsicles, scrambles eggs, light yogurt and mashed pot. The yogurt not working so well. I walk around several times a day, I get a min of 30 mins in per day. My bloated feeling is gone and so are the pains. I dont

It is very common to gain weight in the first week after surgery due to swelling, air etc so don't get discouraged !

I asked in the hospital, do I get weighed today? The Dr. Said no, you will probably disapointed you may have even gained some weight so don't do it! Between the bloat, gas and swelling. So of course I come home and two days later I step on the scale and I lost 1lb should of listened to the dam Dr!! I am not weighing in unroll Dr. Tess me to!

      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.
