Ooh I loveee my BA shakes bc they're so thick. I think it's made the two week preop diet better. Are you telling me that feeling will change after surgery??

Not sure after surgery, mine isnt till the 31st, started preop diet today with the shakes, I like the Unjury, but tried the sample of the BA, was too thick even added more lactaid milk to it, still thick, has a strong smell. glad it was only a sample.

I am feeling really good! Thanks Lola! I'm sure the BA shakes just bring back bad memories because I was so ready to leave the hospital and it was holding me back. My only adverse reaction to surgery was nausea. Once they were able to get that under control, I was able to start walking. Good luck this week, Lola! Try to start walking as soon as you can... It really does help with gas. I really wanted to fart so bad but couldn't! Ha! Tell the anesthesiologist that you are prone to motion sickness. They will give you lots of nausea meds. Didn't work for me, but I must be a wus! :0) feeling sore, but good 7 days out! Are you up to or row? I'll be praying for you!

      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.
