Hi fellow sleevers :)

So the surgeon has approved me for surgery and I will be heading to Tijuana, Mexico in about 5 to 6 weeks! Just have to set the date and I am booked and ready to go! After a lot of research I decided to go with Dr Ramos Kelly. I can't wait! So excited for my next chapter to begin.

Is anyone else going to Dr Ramos Kelly or having their VSG surgery around the first week of March?

Yes I have watched all of her videos. And so many others on youtube. I've just started doing a vlog as well just in case anyone wants to watch mine. I know how inspired I have been by watching everyone!

Officially booked in for 29th February! I thought if I am getting it done at the end of February on a leap year, I should use it wisely. The countdown is on! 5 weeks and 6 days!

I'm great as of right now. My date is the 27th and I start my pre op liquid diet on Wednesday the 20th. This Wednesday is also my NUT class and final surgeon appt so basically still just gearing up. It all gets real for me on Wednesday though!!!

      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?
