I just wanted to wish everyone a good Memorial Day. This day is always special to me as I have many family and friends that have served or plan to serve our country. We would not be here without their sacrifice. I also say a big thanks to the family of soldiers. They sacrifice just as much as the solider.

Also stay strong on this day of cook outs and family gatherings. I know it is tough sometimes seeing people eat like we used to, but the reward greatly out weighs the struggle to remain on program.

My son is a marine serving on the the west coast, an entire continent away. He just finished his first deployment and is coming home on leave in four weeks. It's been a year since I've seen my baby and I'm hoping I feel 'normal' when he is here. I'm very excited!!

As for the cookouts, I do all the family gatherings since my father-in-law passed away. We are the only ones with a house big enough. I passed on it this time, no explanation, just said I was busy. :-) And I am busy! Surgery Thursday! (Though no one but hubby and daughters know). Saturday and yesterday I cleaned the house top to bottom and today I plan to finish the laundry and get my grass cut. Tomorrow I get some groceries and do a little cooking for my hubby. My bag is packed for the hospital. I will be ready to go with no worries. :-)

      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?
