Thanks for that! It's actually what i really needed to hear right now. My surgery isn't scheduled until January, so I'm trying to lose what I can now. I've got to overcome this head hunger thing.... I can do this! I'm a warrior, too!

Thank you so much! It was a little nerve-racking at first but the opinions of others are that of people who don’t truly understand the process. Knowledge is power!! [emoji5]

Congrats on your January date....and the head hunger was the first step of the mental preparation that we will continue to need. Every time I looked at a plate one of my family members had, I just stopped to remind myself that we didn’t get this far for nothing. You got this and I’m happy for you! Sending blessings and prayers in advance!! #WARRIOR

      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.
