Memorializing The Big Day!!!



Recommended Posts

Hey I'm getting banded Monday, Sept. 15th and in honour of that day I brought my "Fat Jeans" to work and am having all my friends and lovely supporters sign it.

I'm of course going to include my family and even my wonderful surgical staff!!!

Did you guys do anything to commemorate the day? If so what did you do?

Here are my pants. I've got a few sigs, but I'll have more by Friday!!!!!!

My Docs orientation seminar had a lady who did that. I thought it was a great idea, but forgot all about it. But the other day it just popped right back into my head. I'm also going to do a tape mold of my body. (If I have the time.)

Sounds great to me! I have met a few others on here that are being banded the same day. I love your blog as well - it is exactly how I feel!

That is such an awesome idea! I had thought about getting a tattoo after reaching goal, but the thought of getting one to mark the day of my new start sounds good too.

I've thought about getting a tat as well. I'm not sure about it, but I have been doing some artwork and trying to figure out what would mean a lot to me.

      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.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
