What's on your bucket list?



Recommended Posts

What's on your bucket list now that you've had surgery? I know this might be a post that's come up a lot, but I wanted to read some fresh responses!

I don't have a bucket list per se because there isn't really anything my weight kept me from doing that I enjoyed, like going to football games (Go Eagles!) and amusement parks and things of that nature. I think I'm just looking forward to being a healthier person, more confident, breaking and getting rid of bad habits that led to the weight gain and incorporating all of the things I've learned along the way into my new lifestyle. I'm just fortunate that I was able to have the surgery to begin with and have had a lot of support throughout my journey.

Kayaking for me as well! The area I live in has a LOT of prime waterways to explore! I'd also like to get back in the saddle of a horse again. The last time I ponied up was 1981. Too long! And hiking! Although, first I need to see if I can rig a Rollator to do some SERIOUS off-roading!

I want to jump out of an airplane! I've always been too "big" to do the tandem jump without paying a "fat girl" fee. Now I can and will do it in the near future!!

      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?
