Update : Well yesterday first my sugery got postponed for hours because of a Emergency, then finally it was my turn to get surgery, I was so nervous yet anxious, so I pray and pray and that gave me some comfort then As soon as I got put to sleep, It felt like I opened my eyes and the surgery was over, the pain I was in yesterday was HELL, yup pure HELL , I had 5 kids natural and that pain yesterday was WORST, I couldn't talk, drink or walk, the meds weren't helping but honestly as time passed the easier it got, I was in a 9 in pain after the surgery by evening I was a 4 and this morning , a 2, I been walking and sipping and the dr said , he's going check me his next rounds and if I been drinking my fluids, I will get the ok to leave today, I have no gas pains and I have no regrets and thank you everyone for the prayers and for checking on me , best of luck to everyone and hope everyone has a speedy recovery

Congratulations on having a safe surgery! I hope that all continues to go really well for you. My experience was similar and other than waking up with some pain and having that initial gas pain I got better and better every day.

All the best and don't ever forget to sip liquids like crazy, it is the most important thing you can do for your self (I say as I am sipping my morning water)!

Welcome to the other side! You did it! Each day will be better than the next now. Be sure to walk...it's the best feeling ever (until we get to run again).

      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.
