Looking for twenty something band buddy



Recommended Posts

Hi, I am Michelle and I am 25 years old and I am being banded in 48 hours. This is quite scary but I am long and ready. I have thought about attending a local support group but from what I hear I will be the baby of the bunch. If you are interested in being my buddy shoot me a line and we can exchange email info.

I am 27 year old female, had the lap band on March 20, 2007 by Dr. Spivak. To date I have lost 98 lbs. I'm struggling hitting that 100 lbs mark, but I will get there (soon I hope).

Good luck with your surgery, I know you will do great. I see your in Houston, I'm in Houston to! May I ask who is performing your surgery?

Hope to hear from you soon!

Jessica

      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.
