Until I had the surgery,until I lost 42 pounds when I did laundry I had three piles, darks mostly black, whites mostly towels and sheets. Today when I did laundry I had four piles darks mostly blues as in blue jeans sizes 14 -16s thank you very much, then colors such is purples and greens and blues and pinks. And of course towels and sheets. I never really thought about how much black I wore until I saw three items in that dark pile that were black and I was surprised. I looked at old pictures of myself from last summer, the very few I was actually in, All I used to wear was black. I love colors!

I do understand. In fact, the picture for me here on BP--my 'profile picture' that ~looks like a floral print--that is from a summer skirt, which I am almost able to wear!

A few weeks ago I did the full clothing swap-out, and my closet is now full of oranges, reds, yellows, purples, golds, etc. I even donned a very colorful bathing suit I hadn't worn in 20 years and dang, does it, its colors--and my cleavage--look great!! (I haven't worn it out yet [it might be a bit much for others], but I took pictues and sent them to some 'special' fellas.

Enjoy, getnhealthy; there's more of that to come! Have fun!

      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?
