Hi everyone just a little update and some other random stuff. just want to start by saying i am about 3 1/2 months post op and 5 lbs from my goal weight i have lost about 33 lbs so far. I COULDNT BE HAPPIER AND I COULDNT BE HEALTHIER!! SO GLAD I GOT SLEEVED! i feel back to normal now because i felt like someone else in a diff body for the past 4 years! anyway, everything has gone well i followed all my post op instructions and my recent bloodwork shows all Vitamin levels normal. i have been eating healthy and i feel good. i can eat whatever i wish but i do notice that the unhealthy stuff i just plain ol DONT LIKE anymore. normally i eat "my fit foods" meals and a small is actually 2 meals for me. LET ME TELL U HOW MUCH MONEY I HAVE SAVED POST OP! i never realized how much $$ i was spending on food and Snacks now i spend about $25 and that is Breakfast, lunch and dinner for the whole week. weird thing i noticed: i am very particular about my drink. i have to have ice, i like to drink from a cup and straw and i am hooked on brewed ice tea and fresh squeezed lemonade.

food just isnt the same to sum it up i used to LIVE TO EAT, now I EAT TO LIVE.

My surgeon is Dr. Darido at 1st choice weight loss, i love my surgeon he is the best and his staff is GREAT!

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

        Have a great Wednesday too! Sorry you're hungry all the time, I'm pretty much the same..and I'm sick of eating the same food all the time.

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
