update...

Honestly, how I feel about him....He was really friendly and stern to me at my pre op appointments, the only time I have felt like he pushed my aside so far, is when I went back up to the ER.  He told me that I was fine, the hospital was full and they needed the bed.  So I was going home and if anything came up call his nurse.

I still think I made a good choice in a surgeon, I just dont think his follow up care is all that great.  which is why i am so HAPPY to have these lovely ladies on this board to take care of me!  i swear, these women have been more concerned for my well being than my own mother!!  

I am sure you will make the right choice for you, and there will be times when you have regrets...I used to say I will never regret this....I was wrong, now that I am feeling better...I am mourning food loss, but I am not regretting it.  I saw that I was 20lbs lighter today when I got on the scale...and I KNEW I made the right decision.
