I made it thru the pre-op diet. Tomorrow is the big day. :( I'm so nervous & scared. I've never had surgery before. I hope I don't freak out and back out at the last minute. I can't! I've already paid for the surgery. I'm a self pay!!! Pray for me!

Thank you for all your warm wishes. I'm home now. It went very well. I guess I'm doing really good since I'm on here! My incisions 5, are very sore but, I'm able to walk around slowly. Sitting hurts when I'm going down but afer I'm seated I'm fine. I kinda suprised how much Water I can drink w/out an problems.

Please keep us posted on your progress. I will be having my surgery in May and know very little about what to expect. It is always best to hear from people who have experienced this procedure first-hand. How are you coping with the liquid only diet?

I am not going to have the surgery until next month, but am nervous already. Guess we will just have to remember that the surgery is fairly quick and everyone says it is well worth it. It would be great if you can keep us posted on your recovery. Good luck.

      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.
