Laying in the cubicle waiting for everything to get started. My body looks like a colored road map. Black line bottom cut, green line top cut, blue lines vertical guide lines.

Day 4-Actually feeling pretty good this morning. Didn't think I needed a pain pill butttook one anyway, just to be safe. I actually picked up something I dropped this morning, that was a major feat. I had to readjust my binder, I cant believe how flat my belly is and my my belly button is not winking at me!

I HATE drain tubes. 4 in the pubis area. Last night I dropped one- needless to say the neighbors got an ear full. Maybe he'll take them out soon!

Ask nurses for a safety pin. They should have pin it to your gown so that would not happen.

      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.
