Feb 9th Sleeve - Friend or Mentor Needed



Recommended Posts

Looking for a friend or mentor to lean on during this process. Sleeve scheduled for Feb 9th 2017.

41, married, 3 boys 17,15&3, 5'5", 235, Atlanta area, LIBERAL-just putting it out there. ;-)

That is me and my sister this Christmas on the slopes in WV. She's around 115 and says things like..."you're not fat, you're beautiful." I am beautiful but I'm sick of being fat.

PM me!

I had surgery 5 months ago - I'm a single mom of a 16 year old son. I'm more than happy to answer questions or just be here for support! Best decision ever!

Good morning from the loser's bench. Today is the 3rd post-op day for me. First day I bombed at getting the minimum amount of fluids and protien (33oz Fluid and 11 oz protien). Yesterday I reached my goals.

Good job ladies. I am 4 days post op and haven't been able to get much down. Yesterday I believe I got 20 ounces of crystal light down due to stomach spasms. Today, I am doing much better. I have gotten down 2 popsicles and 5 ounces of Protein. We Got This!

      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!

      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!!
