We all know WLS is a tool. My first 2 years after my sleeve in 2012...I began a blog and reached way down inside of me and began writing what I called articles. They were about life...and the wisdom I gained through out my past. I wrote about fear, unconditional love, suicide, self, changes, about being a mother, and many more subjects. I literally poured my heart out from the pain and the happiness I had experienced. The blog no longer exists now as it served its purpose at the time. I no longer have the desire to write because I learned how to deal with my feelings on a daily basis now.

Journaling is a great healing tool because mostly it addresses the mental and spiritual aspect of WLS. I highly recommend it or a blog. Blogs are free and can be anonymous.

I kept my articles and every once in a while will read one and say to myself..."I wrote that?".

      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?
