Welcome back retreiverguy! Glad you're doing well!

Good luck retreiverguy!

Our week is about to start! I'm 7:30 on Oct 7th, so I'll probably be seeing some post op posts from some of y'all. I had a nice little victory yesterday just from the preop 40 lbs I've lost so far. Fit on 2 rollercoasters I couldn't previously ride, granted it was tight, but still got on there. Was a nice glimpse of the future life all of us are starting this week! Good luck to all of you having surgery the next few days, I hope to be updating as well.

I'm Oct 7th, feeling real now that the half liquid diet has started! Very cool to have you all being right at the same stage!

Just got approved and scheduled for an Oct 7 sleeve! Very excited!

I think people should stop making assumptions that the OP's PCP is absolutely wrong about bariatric surgery in this case. We do not know all of the details of the situation and bariatric surgery may not be the best immediate option in this case. It blows my mind how much negativity towards this doctor is generated instantly since they didn't immediately jump to the requested treatment. It is definitely possible that the PCP is ignorant of the benefits of bariatric surgery, but isn't it also possible the OP is not the right type of candidate for surgery at this time?
