Amy,

Congrats! That is fantastic. Always good if we can find small victories not always related to just the scale. Keep up the good work!

I'm 6.5 weeks out. Went shopping with my mom and went up to the plus size section and she said "you can't wear that stuff anymore." I assured her I could. She told me I need to check the regular women's clothing- I still feel weird shopping there. Looked at an XL jean jacket and thought There's no way that's gonna fit...but it did! It's crazy! I look in a mirror and ask my mom- is that what I really look like or is the mirror distorted? I've lost about 50lbs but don't believe it yet in my head.

Congratulations!! What a great feeling!!! We've spent so long thinking of and feeling one way about ourselves that it is difficult to think or feel any other way! But slowly it is happening and it is awesome!!!

      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.
