Hi All!

I've been lurking for a week or two and got financing approval today, so there's no turning back, I thought I should introduce myself! I'm planning on having the procedure done 9/30, just working on final details... I'm so grateful for this site and all of the information - answers to so many of my questions.

I'll look forward to getting to know everyone, and appreciate the support that you give so freely!!

Thanks so much for the warm welcome!!! I've learned SO much by reading these boards, and I can't believe how many of us are out there!!! I'm a little nervous, of course, but so excited about actually being able to attain the goal I've had for so long... I lost 50lbs. on WW, but have been stuck there for a long, long time, dieting and exercising along the way, but without any success. It's so frustrating. So I'm so happy to have found a solution that will help me have the power to lose it for good!! I can't wait to go on this journey with everyone - this really is awesome, thank you!! :)

      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?
