Heather,

You look great. Could you tell me what you typically eat for a day. I was banded in Dec. 07 too and have only lost 64 lbs. I am at a period where nothing is changing. Had another fill today but still do not feel the restriction like I should. Help.

Caren, I'm sure you've had your fill already! I just noticed that you posted A LOT earlier today! How did it go? From what I understand, it's not normally a big deal. There have been a few that had problems but most have been fine. I go for my first fill next Tuesday. I'm looking forward to it!

      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?
