Mine is kind of crazy, but I want to hike to the bottom of the Grand Canyon (and back up). The only trouble will be finding someone to go with me, because my husband isn't too outdoorsy.

Mine may be a little random.... I want to be able to swing back on my horse, last time I was able to do it was freshman year of high school... at this point to get on with out a saddle, I have to find a bucket or use the side of the trailer.

I haven't ridden my motorcycle in probably 3 years. One of my goals is to do another track day, and that means losing at least another 30-35 pounds so I can fit in my leathers again. I've really missed riding and as I've packed the weight back on over the years it became less enjoyable and uncomfortable.

I want to be able to run a 5k. Even at my lowest weight in my best condition, I could never run a mile before.

I want to do a tough mudder. I'm still preop and I've gotten up to walking 1.5 miles a day. I want to be happy, so this all about me for once! I have a hard time doing for myself, so I need to start somewhere!

I'd also like to get back into hiking. My weight, my knees, and my feet have all prevented me from going places that I either used to hike, or would like to. As I get more fit and active I'd like to work towards a really big goal, like doing the Camino de Santiago or climbing Kilimanjaro.

      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?
