YES!!! I am SO happy for you. You and I started talking right before I had my sleeve done and I am super excited that you were able to have your surgery. Good luck girl, you've certainly waited long enough and totally deserve it! :)

Welcome to the Losers Bench! Now the real fun begins. One word of advise... take pictures, and pictures, and more pictures of yourself along this journey. Even if you never show them to anyone, you'll be so happy you did so you can see the changes for yourself.

Congratulations!

My op was 12 hours ago. I lost 18lbs in the two weeks prior.

My Surgeon just came and checked in on me now.

He said "Mate, it went totally awesome this morning. Thanks for doing the preop diet. I couldn't have hoped for it to be better."

He also said "You should feel in less pain than an hour ago etc etc. just remember it only gets better from herein out. See you tomorrow for a more in depth review."

So I guess it's worked out so far and I can't believe how much pain the shoulder was in from gas this afternoon. But like he told me. It's mostly gone now and it's just the liquid diet and pro turn for 14 days and a graduation to food from there.

Can't wait for the next step.

      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.
