Ok I just got told I can have the surgery! My weight goes in between 207 to 220. I have to stay where I'm at so I can get it. Now I'm doing it because the women in my family get big in are 30s so I know I'm up and down but I can't get out off the 200 and I don't want to go up more so that's why I'm going for it. My mom also had problems getting the weight off and she had the gastro by pass and she is doing alot better. My surgery day is Jan 18th and I'm so nervous lol. Is there anyone out there that is new to this?

My surgery was based on my first visit weigh in. !y dr wanted me to lose weight, I guess to prove that I could do it. I started at 210 on my surgery day I weighed 194. Not a big loss but it helped to prepare my mind and body as to what was coming after surgery.. good luck

Diet cranberry juice has been my saving grace-not too sweet not too tart. It isn't easy so far...

      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.
