You will do fine. Everybody gets nervous as surgery approaches. And everyone gets depressed at the thought of losing their best friend "food". Why don't you go to before and after pictures. That should make you feel better.

It is common to second guess yourself. Stick with your decision and then do everything your doctor tells you and follow the rules and you will do fine. We all worry that we are going to be 'the one' that fails. And clearly all of us don't! If you commit to doing what you are supposed to do you will do fine! Good luck!

take heart and stay in the game! It's your body and your life - don't lose faith in yourself 2 days before the big day! On Feb. 25, I asked a friend/colleague if she had any regrets regarding lapband surgery - she said "only that I didn't do earlier in my life". That was a page turner for me. The results excite me, the surgery scares me to death,.....the opportunity to live my life the way I have always wished - that is what helps me stay in the game!

      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.
