Joyce: Fill us in on more details. I don't remember seeing you before now but you must have been here before I started lurking the site. So fill in the details some for us newer folks.

Joyce, how much weight have you lost so far? Are you getting your Protein (preferrably w/ good food choices) in daily? You need 60 grams a day. Are you eating protein first, then vegetables, then if room left -fruits, carbs.? Moist meats are going to give you a sense of "fullness" much longer than liquid Proteins. Are you drinking your Water quota daily (but not w/ meals)? Do you need a fill? Are you having any problem eating (pbing)? Try to find some form of exercise that you enjoy and do it regularly. Come here and "talk" w/ people who really understand how you're feeling. Best of luck to you!

      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.
