Hello every body,

My name is Cecilly'Cera most ppl call me Cece. I am 23yrs old && a mother to four beautiful children. A few months ago I was laying in bed doing homework, my then four year old at the time, says to me, "Mommy lets go outside && play." My response, " Not right now son mommy is tired." My son then says the words that broke my heart, "But mommy your always tired && don't like to play with us." It was then that I realized I needed a life changer. At the beginning of all of this I weighed 297 lbs. Today four weeks after surgery I an 254 lbs. The surgery has changed my life already && I am glad to find a support group to talk to && get new ideas from.

Welcome to the board ! First of all I'm glad that your surgery went well. I wish you all the luck on a healthy New Life . Sounds like you're doing fantastic! My gastric bypass is scheduled for May 14th . I'm a little scared however, the benefits outweigh me being scared ! I have three teenage boys that I have to keep up with . I'm determined to become a healthy person on the inside and out. Nice to meet you and keep us updated on your progress !

Surgery date: May 14, 2013

      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.
