Hi All,

I am newto this site. I am also just starting my wieght loss journey. I have my information session at Kaiser on the 8th. Then I start the options classes either end of January or sometime in February depending on the class time. I am excited to finally get in control of my weight. I am hope to have my surgery over the summer so that I don't have to miss school. I am almost done with my BA in Libral Studies.

A little about me: I have been with my husband almost 9 years. We have been married just over 3 years. We have 3 children. 2 boys 8 and 3, and a girl who is 7 months. She is the princess for sure. The boys are in Karate and so we spend a lot of time at their dojo. My kids are my pride and joy. I love spending time with my family and my friends. I am in college (BA in Liberal Studies). I also take care of my grandma. She is 89 and she still works 5 days a week for the library. She no longer drives so I am happy to be her personal driver :) She is still adjust to not having a car but it is safer for everyone.

I am hoping that this surgery will help me lose weight so that I can actually exercise more than 2 days a week. i have back issues that prevent me from dooing a lot of things. My doctor belives this surgery will help.

Thank you.

Jennifer

GingerDiane,

I wasn't able to do any of those things on the app, I had to go through the website. Are you having those problems on the website? If so maybe you should contact their web support.

      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.
