Hello everyone. I am 11 days out and feeling great. Could anyone give me a name of a good walking shoe? I don't know about you all but I can't wear a lot of tennis shoes for a long period of time....my feet hurt after a while from the weight. Any input is appreciated.

If there is a running shoe store near you, go and be fitted. They carry walking shoes also, but running shoes make great walking shoes! They will analyze your gait and give you several options to try on.

saucony, ....my husband loves these shoes, he has had his pair for years, I also,have a pair and they are super comfortable, they are used mainly for running though

asics, ..my grandma has had numerous back surgeries and she wears these daily even around the house because of the gel and comfort

Also agree go to a good store. The owner looked at me walking in, brought pair after pair all the while telling me what makes a good shoe. I love them. New Balance BTW. I now run in them. I'm 59 and I run. The shoe makes the difference.

      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?
