Ive been a member since November.. and i'm happy to say.. I'm getting banded on the 19th of Jan. Have alot of nerves.. not about surgery.. about afterwards...i dont have my hubbys support in this... so its even harder on my mental state. So I look forward to reading as I have been the past few months and posting on my process. Good Luck to all & to me.

Michelle

Hi Bronxie......it's tough to have to do this without spousal support. Good thing you can always turn to us online! Good luck, Bronxie!

Is he against it because he's worried about your health? Or for a less palatable reason? If it's your health, I can think of some stuff that might help. If it's for some other reason, well, then just don't let him hold you down! :thumbup:

Hi Monk.. He feels i should be able to do this on my own..and that I'm just looking for an easy way out. He is not very openminded on alot of things.. and we hardly agree on anything... and before you ask.. all i can say i was Young and Dumb... hahaha. I also think because i didnt need or ask his "approval" on this.. is why hes giving me a hard time.

I wont let him hold me down thats for sure.

Best of luck to you Michelle! Hopefully your hubby will come around and be more supportive, but you can do this. Let us know how your surgery goes.

I have no regrets. I love my band! :thumbup:

      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.
