In 18 days I'll be sleeved



Recommended Posts

So I've been battling obesity for a very long time. One day I seen my doctor paperwork say 'morbid obesity' and diagnosed as prediabetic I knew something had to change. So through research I learned that my insurance paid for gastric sleeve. So weighing in at my highest 260 I began my six month nutrition classes. So far I've lost 20lbs which was what I was required to lose on my own to qualify. August the 5th is my preop class and august the 17th is my surgery date. I'm alittle nervous but mostly excited. I began my liquid diet on August 3rd, what a journey that'll be. I'll be getting my surgery in Washington DC at the age of 28. Inbox with any questions.

So this week I'll began taking pics maybe about every 4 days. This journey will be something to remember.

I will ask my sister to take some pics before surgery. I already lost 3 kg when I stopped eating sugar/junk after seeing my surgeon, so I'm pretty optimistic. :)

Welcome! :) Did you already start on your liquid diet?
Omg, this liquid diet is becoming tougher and tougher. Now that I'm only 3 days away from surgery I have gotten so bored with the Water and Protein drinks. It didn't help I came on my monthly too. Wooo girl.... The only thing I done had was a peppermint but I spit it out. I jitsu needed some flava.

      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?
