Awesome, John!! It will go quick. And my hope for all you new sleevers is that you have as smooth a surgery and recovery as I had. Not a moment of regret. Good Luck!!

Good luck JohnCarter! Seems like yesterday we were planning our Nov & Dec sleeving, and now we are two months post op. The pre op and newly post op diet requirements are now a faded memory. The worst part about the surgery was the unknown. Truthfully for me, it was 10 times easier than I expected. Some people have problems with nausea/vomiting.etc. but for the most part I see a lot of people are like me and within a week I hardly felt like I had surgery. Best wishes everyone, this has been awesome and wonderful. Thank God we are sleeved!

      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?
