Just Breath..... hope it went well. Please post and tell me how it went. I was a tad apprehensive and it's natural to feel that a little when we are about to embark on a change! Now that you have the tool it will take a little time to get all it's function in the working mode. Praying for you to have a smooth journey. Just ask if there is anything you could use an ear about! Support makes all the difference! Go girl!

Surgery went good! It's the after that's, ugh! Yesterday very sore, felt full of air/gas, did some walking a let 2 lil burps out. Took 2 pain pills which helped me sleep. Today still feel sore not as bloated, but still to early to tell...

I'm happy I'm on the other side, just wanting the soreness to go away. Will do lots of walking today around my neighborhood

Hello. A week after my surgery I got sick, real bad nausea, had to go back to Dr, to get Fluid removed. Since then I'm sooo much better, I don't regret it anymore. Last week on Sunday I weighed myself and I'm 15lbs down ???? . I go this Friday for my 1 month follow up

      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.
