Flexees are really nice. They smooth and hold in without feeling restricted. The key is to buy the correct size.

Girdles (and bras) are like space heaters duct taped to your body.

Bali makes a really nice, supportive pair of under ware. They are cotton with an extra panel on the front. They make a huge difference. They are supportive without being restrictive. I buy them at Kohls. They are like 2 pair for $25. I am a fan.

I found a pair of Spanx type high waisted underwear in a size too big really really helped without being too tight or uncomfortable.

Any problem with rolling waistbands or legs that ride up?

I bought a few pairs of compression yoga pants. Both Old Navy and Lane Bryants sell them for a reasonable price. They are high waisted and really comfortable. I also have a pair of no name high waited body shaper panty like things. I think the higher waist helps keep them from rolling.

@@Miss Mac, I don't find that the Flexees roll but only when it's the right size. All of them roll when they're too small.

      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?
