me and my kids

The above line is all you need to realize, Your Kids need you and you are getting heathier so you can be there for them. The rest will be fixed over time - As for the Tummy get a little plastic work over and you will have a new small cute tummy. But atleast due to the surgery you will get the option.

Keep you head up you got this

A lot of what you are feeling right now is probably hormonal in nature--the RNY can wreak havoc on them. You didn't say in your post how long ago your surgery was, but I think many of us had "buyer's remorse" and wondered why we did this. But PLEASE hang in there, talk to your therapist, and remember we care and are rooting for you. The scars and the pain will fade, and remember your kids--this should give you a long healthy life with them!

      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.
