I'm so excited!! I've completed 5 of my 6 required classes. My final class will be June 20th, then I can submit to insurance. I was so proud of myself this month. I've been really good about making all of my own meals, packing a lunch for work, eating smaller portions, and eating all of my meals over the course of 20 minutes ( I literally set the timer on my phone!), and it paid off in an 11 lb. loss since my last class! Hard to believe I could be having surgery in two months! When I started this process in January, six months seemed so long, but time has flown by.

Congratulations Nurse Jenny!

My 6 out of 6 class is June 9th. I am amazed at how this 6 month process is basically training me to lead a healthier lifestyle. Setting the time on your phone is a good idea. I am going to try that with my meals as well. How are you doing with your exercise?

Keep up the good work!

      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?
