Recommended Posts

I had a proud moment this evening. I rescued a very obese cat from a storm drain this evening. I was able to fit down the manhole cover with no problem. I got in my truck thought to myself wow 15 months ago that would not have been possible. I would have need assistance with the cat.

I love my new life!!

I have one lady that tells me that all the time. I believe she is just jealous that I have lost the weight. I have told her the last few times that I am not losing anymore weight, but I am still losing inches. I have no control over my body.

Thanks for asking about my training. It is slow right now due to working nights, but last night was my last night shift. I will be able to go to the gym in the afternoon with hubby and that will help.

      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.
