Hey Guys - I'm new to the site also. I was banded on 6/11/08 and have lost an amazing 30 pounds with my pre-op 10 day liquid diet until now. I'm trying to create my profile, but can't figure out how to create a tracking Ticker. Any help would be appreciated.

Hi Dee Dee

I had my lap band on the same day as you! just found this site and thought I would join in as well. You are doing great - I'm down about 10 to 11 myself. The hardest part is drinking and the Protein for me. Are you using a suppliment yet?? I was unable to purchase stuff at my Dr.s' and won't be back until 6 weeks post op. Wondering what's at GNC - that will work in the mean time. wish you all the best.

Sandra

      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.
