Try your Protein Shakes and find variety cause your tastes will change after, so bought variety single packs to have around and unflavored and of course Unjury chicken Soup flavored is a real keeper. You will want a NON straw Water cup you will take everywhere and measure your water. That will be most likely your first week or two home. As you get closer they will suggest chewable vitamins supplements you will need to take after, so I bought mine right before and had ready. After you move off liquids they will add soft pureed which pudding Jello such then soft Proteins egg and soft meats like refried Beans. So I made sure I had a dozen eggs, pudding mix, milk for shakes, can of refried beans, and jello mix. Then I have just went week by week now. Next week is my one month visit, so I have not bought nothing until after that appointment as they will add some more foods back, then I will pick up on way home. When buying remember about 1-2T will be all you eat, so you may think of ice cube trays to freeze servings of like rest of the refried beans. I tried those little half cup tupperware things but the ice cube trays were perfect then I Ziploc them. Hope this helps out some and congratulations, it is exciting and nerve racking until it gets here but well worth it!!

Just pray and keep the faith.I had my surgery Tuesday May 26.My surgery went good,I had no complications.I think in some cases the doctor wants to make sure your heart is strong enough to handle everything. I think its a good thing.You will be okay.

      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.
