<p><p><p>We went camping last weekend, and I had some emotions creep in that I was not expecting. It was our first camping trip since I had been banded, and it was not centered around food or snacking. I was still on liquids, so it probably was not the best timing to go camping. Anyway, it reminded me of when someone dies and you have that whole first year to go through of holidays, etc...without that person and the feelings and emotions that come up. With the holidays coming up and so many of us new at this, I am hoping some of you "old timers" will share your "first" experiences, if it created any emotions, feelings, what was different, etc..</p> <p>The camping trip truly got my attention early and I want to be more emotionally prepared for other first. <img src="http://www.LapBandTalk.com/images/smilies/wink.gif" border="0" alt="" title="Wink" smilieid="5" class="inlineimg" /></p> <p> </p> <p>Wanda</p></p></p>

      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?
