Excitement for my future is finally railroading the emotion of fear! I'm all over this and a "I'll show myself and this world what I'm capable of" attitude has emerged and I'm LOVING IT! ! Beyond thrilled to bring back the "me" I was before weight told me all the things I couldn't do... just completed my surgical skills class. Had my pre op with Dr and last nut appointment last week. Scheduled for Sept. 7th and ready to rock this out!! Thanks for letting me vent!

I was terrified the entire time, never took the opportunity to be excited like you. I wish I had! Five months later (I had my surgery on March 21st) I am starting to feel excited because now I can do so much more than I could before and I feel much better and I am even enjoying my workouts rather than dreading them. With enthusiasm like your's, you are going to knock this out of the park!!

A positive attitude is a fantastic compliment to rock solid determination. B)

      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?
