I haven't received my band yet but I plan on recording my journey through scrapbooking. I don't have a web cam so youtube is out of the question for me. I like to scrapbook anyway so I figure it's a good way to show what I've been through in the future!

I am keeping a picture journal on my computer, but I don't upload pictures because I work for children's services and DO NOT want a client to run across information like that online. I do enjoy watching other people's progress online though, it is wonderfully motivating.

I did not take any before pics. I hate seeing myself in that condition and don't want anyone else to see it either. Silly, I know, then I can't see how different I look at goal. I just want it to stay in my past and leave it there. I may run across a pic from a family function or something when I was close to my highest weight, but I hope not.

I have my consultation tomarrow and I got a new camera so that I can take pictures and I think I will record my journey through scrapbooking and journaling. I hate seeing myself at this size too, but I think if I record my journey I can look back and see how much work I put into it and it will help me when maitenence time comes!

I record mine on you tube too. It is a great way to hear andsee what others are doing and when I am having a frustrating moment (like now) it keeps me motivated. Good luck on your journey!!

      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.
