STILL UNDECIDED ????????



Recommended Posts

I've been reading even asked a few I know personally that have had the surgery, but still I'm undecided. Mainly for the reason I'm afraid of the way I may look. I've seen many that look wonderful afterwards but as well many that look awful????not sure if those ones just didn't follow the post op directions as did what they pleased but it scares me. With that being said I did go ahead and schedule me an appt so I could ask any questions or concerns with a doctor(6/2) hope this help ease my mind????????

DO IT DO IT! It's so easy... I mean it's not like lying in bed eating cupcakes easy, but it's EASY. I highly recommend it. It has a 100% recommendation rate on RealSelf. I just got done on May 16.

TOTALLY do it, focus on your health more than your looks, though you will look great afterwards, but thing about everything you are going to be able to do….don't think twice!!!

I have no regrets. My food relationship has changed but that is a positive thing with no major emotional problems. I'm so glad I am on this new journey. Best of Luck with your personal decision.

I have no regrets but for me it wasnt and isn't easy. Everyone goes through this surgery differently. Don't get me wrong I am successful! I made and surpassed my goal in 6 months. I wouldn't change anything about the process I have been through. I am nine months out from surgery and I have to say it gets a little easier. Maybe what I want to say is it gets more "routine". Drink your fluids, get your Protein in, exercise and you to will 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.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
