that is great news. good luck. dont forget to ask about fills. good to have someone close if you have troubles. i think you will be very happy with your band. the lap band fill center has a great book that they give you if you use them for your fills. maybe you can call and order it. it takes you from pre-op and then post-op and they what to do and expect weekly after that. plus all kinds of great advice and guidelines for what to eat and drink. Vitamins etc........... i love the book. i wish i had had it when i had my surgery. let us know how you do.

      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.
