  1. Mine is the same day! Luckily I only have to do 3 days, but it definitely is a mind game.
  2. Thank you both for the info. I can not wait for the reflux to be gone. I just feel so awful all the time, and the sad thing is anything healthy pretty much makes it worse so I am not eating well. On the otherside I am not eating much so I haven't gained at all. I have been the same exact weight since March. I am so hoping this will get me to goal!

  7. Good Luck Tomorrow! Let us know how you are doing!
  8. Yay I am so glad to hear that. I know I am having the revision done because of a medical necessity, but I am excited at the possibility of losing more weight. I will keep you all posted! I am glad you are all doing well with your recovery and weightloss! Yay I am so glad to hear that.

  10. How are you all that already had the revision feeling? I go on the 23rd for mine.
  11. I am not sure how I feel. It came so sudden. A month ago I thought I was just having a little reflux and they would put me on a higher dose of meds. Part of me is excited at the prospect of losing more weight. The other side is scared to death of the RNY

  13. I am being revised from a sleeve to bypass on the 23rd
  14. Hi all, I am due to have revision on January 23rd due to GERD. For those of you that have had both what was your recovery vs. the sleeve, and did you have additional weight loss.
  15. I am having the revision on Jan 23rd from Sleeve to Bypas due to reflux. How are you doing?
  16. I know when I had the sleeve done the first week they just wanted me to focus on getting liquids in. Then after my follow up appt they had me start on Protein drinks. I was allowed to have them that first week, but it wasn't something I needed to focus on.
  17. I am to have a sleeve to Bypass revision done on the 23rd due to reflux. Has anyone gone through that. I can't seem to find anything on the site. I am just wondering weight wise how much more anyone has lost.
  18. I have a genuine question. For those of you who fell pregnant early after sleeve. Do you use any type of birth control. I am honestly asking this because I want to make sure what I am using works!! Well until I don't want it to
  19. @@KatieD6982 Not sure if I replied to this, but when I called the surgeon she suggested that while I am waiting for the seminar (August 21) I should get in to see my pcp for the sleep apnea test etc.. So I have an appointment for August 6th to see her to get the ball rolling.
