I just found this app. I am new to things like this. However I have my surgery scheduled for June 11th and it's exciting. I see my surgeon for pre-op on Monday. I believe I will end up starting my two week diet on or the day after my 30th birthday. I hope to go into my 30s more healthy and I am sure more happy. I can not wait to exercise without this load on me. I'm sure my body will not look perfect but I will be able to do much more than I can now which is exciting. I cannot ride my bicycle so that is one of my goals and who knows maybe I will like it so much that I will find other bike people to ride with. We will see. It has to be better than where I am now.

Welcome to the group! You will learn a lot here. I would check for a June group and join there. You will find people who are having their surgeries around you, and you can go thru it together!

Thank you. I am hopeful and ready for my new life, so to say. I have been dealing with a weight problem since puberty and I'm ready to be and feel different.

      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.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
