Long2bThin -

That's why I put it here to let everyone who is just starting their journey to know that IT CAN BE DONE.... You gotta work at it - the band is only a tool - it really boils down to eating healthy and exercising - You have to make the committment to yourself - but OMG let me tell you something - it is so worth it - you are so worth the work

CONGRATULATIONS!!! That just made my day! I'm so excited to have this surgery but somewhere in the back of my mind I keep worrying that it won't work for me and I'll never lose the weight. I feel so encouraged! Thanks for posting here!

I'm was banded a month later than you and am still plugging away. I had more weight to lose, so it will take me a little longer, but you're right, this Band really does work!!!

Happy Dance!!!

      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.
