Hi there,

I am a couple of days a head of you.... how can you walk for an hour? I have a hard time walking a couple of blocks. My port site is still pretty sore. I also had a hiatal hernia repaired so maybe that is it. I am hoping to start exercising next week. My doctor told me to have 60 g of Protein but every doctor is different. Did they give you any kind of nutritional info?

Just to be on the safe side - I would make sure you are getting 3 Protein Drinks a day in.

      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.
