I'm less than two weeks out. I remember the night before surgery- I didn't sleep much. I remember thinking the day of "are you really going to do this?" I did!! I woke up and was pleasantly surprised! The pain was really like 2/10 of what I was expecting. I was terrified- and woke up thinking "is that it?"

You'll be great. But I must say the post op is the had eat part dealing with food. I have to be on liquids for 3 weeks- and that is the hardest part! The surgery itself is a breeze.

Best of luck! I was you just 13 days ago.

      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.
