Hi everyone. I'm new to myfitnesspal and weight loss surgery. I had my first consultation with the surgeon today. I went in with my mind set on lap band and I guess I didn't do enough research because he really seemed against lap band and suggested bypass or sleeve. After doing a couple hours of research on these and talking it over with my husband, I think I have decided on the sleeve. Seems like the best fit for me. I am really nervous about the permanency part and the removal of like, my whole stomach. I really think if I can get over that aspect, I will be at peace with the decision. Just a little nervous.

Anyways, glad to be here and hope everyone is doing well.

Thanks.
