@@Deanna66 they pumped you full of fluids while you were in the hospital. Don't be upset, it's the same for everyone. It will come off...along with the rest of it. Just keep sipping your Water and sticking with your doctors orders.

You should spend some time reading other posts on this forum. That will help you understand the process you are going through and the experiences you can expect. Pretty sure 90% of newbie's questions and concerns (including the one you just posted) have already been asked and answered dozens, if not hundreds of times.

Take some time and educate yourself before getting upset over all these things that are normal

Don't weigh yourself so frequently! I weigh myself every 2 weeks and as long as the number is less than the last time I was on the scale, that's all that matters! Think how long it took you before to put on 9 pounds, I guarantee you less than a week or two! Be patient & you'll succeed!

      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.
