Ok can I give both of you some advice plz, I am 2 wks post surgery. My surgery went well and I didn't have any complications but a few days after I got home I had a melt down, because I had to find things to do instead of eating and when having to do that I realized how much time out of my day I actually took to eat, snack and pick. So what i have been doing is walking every time I use to eat so plz come up with a plan for when you are missing food and even the taste of food, I miss flavor so much but Iv lost 20pds in two weeks and it's been worth it. So remember what I'm saying plz because I wish I would have had this advice. :) good luck to all of you :)

Well...I am getting sleeved on the 14th too and I am kind of freaking out too even though I perfectly understand the procedure and what comes afterwards due to my job. I think at this stage is so normal to be nervous. After all we have been waiting to do this for so long!

Mine is also June 14th. I have my pre op appointment tomorrow. I have been losing weight. I last saw the Dr. June 15th 2015. Ofcourse I have gained weight in a year. A total of 20lbs. But since I really buckled down and just started drinking shakes and very little food I have dropped 13.8 lbs. So I'm closer to what I was last June. I still need to go lose more weight before June 14th. I can do it. Anyways, congrats you will do great!

      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.
