Feel like this whole journey has been a whirlwind, and all the sacrifices will be worth it.. painfully needed to admit to myself I had a problem and was tired of doing nothing about it! I thank you all for sharing your experiences and advice! It has made all the difference in the world to me! Best of luck to all of you.

My husband and I were sleeved in November and December, which made it great to dress bulky and relax. Our Christmas dinner was wonderful, a mild chili, a few sips at a time. Then you can look forward to spring, with a new spring in your step, and new clothes! It habeengreat, no problems. Good luck!

my wife is very supportive so I can see us enjoying the same type of goodness come Christmas time! And I'm so looking forward to the new wardrobe! I can't donate my old clothes soon enough

Paul, for 30 years my husband had labeled bins of 1x, 2x, and 3x clothes, as he went on extreme diets like a year of Optifast shakes. He has lost 100 lbs, he wears a Large shirt, and all those Big clothes, well he finally knew he could give them up.

lulu, I unfortunately have hoarded all sizes as well especially the smaller sizes with the hopes of one day being able to squeeze back into them.. to be able to finally part with most of it will be so rewarding.. it amazing how we all have faced the same sort of struggles.. next on the wish list is being able to get on a flight without feeling completely embarrassed.. thank you for sharing your experiences

      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?
