Recommended Posts

Im 25 married and have Four beautiful daughters. I have been overweight all my life I think my first diet was around d age of 9.It consisted of drinking lemon juice every morning I ended up getting sick I did lose some wait but it wasn't worth it. Anyway frm there I did diet after diet n lost n gained weight. Current weight is 324 my highest weight was 336. I am dedicated full-time to my hubby and kids and I love them and Im happy about that but Im not happy with myself there's lots of things I'd like to do but I cant because of my weight. I decided its time to dedicate some time to myself. Ive been doing alot of research and I decided gastric bypass was a good decision. I was on a six month wait and finally submitted a request on wensday Nov. 21 Im waiting for an answer but its very hard and frustrating. I pray that God gives me this opportunity. Well hello to all andtht was my short intro.

      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.
