This is so crazy to me. I have eagerly looked at everyone's weight loss timelines, believing while at the same time wondering, how it could possibly be? And here I am!

Starting weight 212

Surgery day 204

Curren 197

My husband said this morning, "Wow! Your face looks thinner today!" My mom didn't know I was having surgery. The day I started the pre-op diet I dropped her off at the airport. I'll be picking her up on Tuesday, curious to see if she notices enough to say anything.

Its only been a few days, but giving my kids meals is getting easier. Last night I was at a restaurant with friends (an event planned months ago, before I had a surgery date) and I survived watching them eat. Got myself the house chicken noodle Soup and just ate the broth. Today is cooking baking day with my kids. That should be interesting. I anticipate frequent breaks. LOL

Congratulations, looks like you're doing great and handling things awesome. You should be proud of yourself. My surgery is Jan 4th, I only hope I can handle things as easily as you seem to be. You make it look so simple, lol. I'm nervous, scared, anxious and excited all in one. Ready for my new lie to begin. Thanks for your story! :)

      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.
