I have looked at your blog post and want to remember every word of it as my weight goes down and my fitness goes up, sagging skin and all. Thank you!

It's not MY blog. I just shared it. I keep seeing myself as a melting candle in the mirror and this inspired me.

Really liked that blog, very inspiring. I'm at that point where I worry that the way I look isn't a true reflection on how I feel or what I've accomplished. But I want to get to my goal weight and meet my doctor's expectations. The plastic surgery and finishing touches will have to come later. The health part is the most important. Thanks for sharing!!

Wow, amazing! Sometimes I wish I had a little more of that athletic spirit, but maybe that will come in time. I am exercising, showing up for my life, etc., but that kind of strength and flexibility is so incredibly inspiring. And body image is such an issue for one and all -- whether young or old, fat or thin. Thanks for sharing this inspiring blog!

      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?
