Please don't laugh at me. I am wondering why following surgery people's head seem disproportionate. Have you noticed this as well?

Nope, me too. I sometimes see ppl being what I think is too small, so I don't want to get like that either. I need a lil weight

I am so glad that y'all responded. To me this is not something that people typically talk about but it has been bothering me. I wish there was a way to make sure that I don't become a bobble. A sexy and healthier bobble but, still a bobble. On a better note, I am waiting for my insurance pre-approval. Whoo hoo!!

Lol my doc said he's only seen the bobble in extreme situations which are few and far between, so let's keep our fingers crossed!

I'm over a year and a half post-op, and 'I' see it, but everyone else says they don't see it!!

Wishing everyone the best!!

I know ! I just commented to my husband maybe they were meant to be big!! I hope I don't look like that. I know it seems silly but some people look like extreme bobble heads the body doesn't match.

      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.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.
