I haven't been on here in a while. I have been having a lot of problems. I have a leak. I am on a feeding tube right now. Also, didn't you say they scratched your uvala? I had to had another EGD Fri. and that happened to me. How long til that goes away?Glad you are doing well!!!

OMG!!! That is awesome!!!!! Congratulations!!!!!! I'm soo happy for you!!! ) I'm so ready to get there!!! Do they take your blood again? I'm curious if I'm getting everything I need.

Hi Tiff,

Have you had any experience with leaks? I have one and I'm on a feeding tube. I'm really struggeling with being down too. I pray about it everyday, but cant seem to shake it. Looking for some help. Thanks!

I had a pick line in the hospital for 8 days, but then I got to come home so they did the feeding tube. I am so scared. I do have excellent Dr's. and they are very positive. I'm just scared.

So it took you 22 days for it to heal? My Dr. said he won't give a time frame because everyone is so different. I just want an idea. So was it like starting all over agian on liquids once ...

Thank you sooo much for that information. I actually found her on here, but noticed she hadn't been on here in a long time. I never heard anything. i am looking her site up for sure!!! I'm going in tomorrow to have leak reapaired again. Hopefully this will do it!!!

You look great!!!! Thank you for checking on me. I go back in tomorrow to have it repaired again. Hopefully it will work this time!

I check on you everyday!!! Hope all is well!!! Your in my prayers!!!!

Are you going to the meeting tomorrow?

Hey! Hope you are doing well! When did you start getting your energy back?? I thought for a few days I had it, but now feel so tired and having to take naps. I'm so ready for food I can't stand it!!!! I'm hoping it helps!

Oh my goodness!!! I made it!!! I am feeling better each day! The first two days were ROUGH!!!! It took a while for the anesthesia to get out of my system. I have never had major surgery, so didn't know how it would effect me. I was so, so nauseous, and had headaches for two days. I never really experienced "pain" except right after ,before I was given anything.

I'm having trouble getting all my liquid in. I guess that is normal. Do y'all wake up during the night to drink?? I woke up with another headache and wondered if I was dehydrated. IDK. I go to the Dr. Thurs. curious to see what they think.

Can't say enough about the thoughts and prayers!! I needed it!!!

Keep me posted with y'all too!!!

Hi Donna, How are you feeling? I'm on day 4 today. The first 2 days were really rough. Each day is getting better. Hope you are too!!! Keep me posted!

I'm EATING!!!!!!! YAY!!!! It is soooo awesome to finally be to this point!! Feeling great! Thanks so much for all of the thoughts and prayers!!!!! XOXO!!!

Thank you sooo much for the encouraging words!!! You are doing GREAT!!! That is sooo exciting!!!! congratulations!!!!

I was starting to get worried about you!!!!! SOOOO glad you are doing better!!!! I hate that you had such a hard time!!! That makes me soo nervous! I know it is major surgery, I just have no idea what that is like!!! Thank you sooo much for the incite!!! It helps A LOT!!!! Please keep us posted when you are up to it! Luv ya!!! Kim

I finally made my decision after a month of prayer & research I have decided to go with the sleeve rather than bypass. I feel sooo much better finally making the decision!!! Now is the hard part....I have to tell my family!!!!

My husband has never been a fan of WLS, but after going to my Dr. with me and asking a lot of questions he is coming around. He is being very supportive. I wouldn't be able to do it without him!

My family's opinion is very important to me and I'm so afraid they are going to freak out and try to talk me out of it! I'm already nervous enough without hearing a lot of negativity!!! Please pray for me!!!!

I excited to start this journey! I have really enjoyed this website and all of the inspiring stories! I'm looking forward to getting to you y'all better and hopefully can help inspire someone too!

Thanks!!! Kim
