Hey Aaron,

It sounds like a bit of anxiety mixed with OCD..

If it's really messing with you and causing undue distress I would look into taking to a counselor.

I have OCD and was a compulsive eater. Now that I'm not feeding the beast all sorts of new things to obsess about come into play.

Every night when I lay down in bed....as soon as I get settled I have to get up and go downstairs and make sure the front door is locked. It always is, but I still have to check.

Every time I pull out of a gas station, I get a 1/4 mile down the road and have to stop and make sure I didn't leave my credit card at the pump. I never have, but I always have this vision that I just did.

I could go on and on. I've always been this way. If I'm stressed...these feelings get worse.

Exactly how I been feeling lately stupid things like did I lock my door leaving work and it bothers me so bad I have to go back ... In bed can't sleep my mind races thinking of everything even like off the ball random shit ... Have you talked to a doctor in worried cause I'm in corrections so I don't want it coming up on my background check

      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.
