UPDATE!
hey guys! its been a while.
i look back at my journey & sometimes it can seem like such a distant memory but other times, it seems like just yesterday, i was begging god to save me.
the title of this post is "i definitely regret surgery.... so far" but to be honest, i no longer regret it. surgery has given me such a beaaaaautiful gift.
im now 22wks pregnant with my baby girl.
had i not had this surgery, i wouldve never been blessed with such a miracle.
this surgery nearly took my life but it has also given me life & now im giving my baby girl life.

wow!! well i just recovered from a leak. i had astent in for 4weeks & thank god, it healed! i went the entire month without eating and i fought nausea ALL DAY LONG!!!! no meds helped. the stent had even shifted & needed to be adjusted. then shifted again but my gi dr was on vaca & i had it removed the day he came back. it was hell but it gets better AFTER its removed. its a mountain in the road for u for sure but it does get better after!!

after 11.5yrs of trying & having pcos, i finally conceived in june 2013. i was sleeved dec 20, 2011. i lost 143lbs & was weighing 130lbs when i conceived.

hey guys, wanted to update!!!
im doing good! drinking, eating, even went walking around a track for a hr. it killed me & im still sore 2days later but im glad i was able to do it! i pray i keep progressing

once u start eating solids, you will be ok. i had the same problem until i ate solids. trust me.
i had a leak and couldve died because of it but thank god, im alive & will be 11months post op in 2days. im down 127lbs.

yay!!!! i just cant imagine doing a crazy hard workout & then only being able to just sip forever!! :/
also, will we ever be able to drink & eat at the sametime?

i was sleeved dec 20th & i now see why we have to sip because those pains are NO JOKE!!!! but my question is...
will we have to sip for the rest of our lives or will we eventually be able to guzzle again?

*****UPDATE****** feb 2nd, 2012
i now have a leak & a stent was placed in. feeling horrible!!! the below post is the least of my worries now!
im going crazy..
i was sleeved dec 20th. everything was ok until maybe a week after coming home from the hospital. i realized that i was extremely exhausted and always felt faint. it didnt really start hitting me hard until last week. everyone keeps telling me that it will get better but it feels like its getting worse! i keep trying to "stay positive" but how much more of this can i take? i want to feel normal again!!!!
i noticed that when i walk, im like dragging my feet. im so weak and faint. almost like my thighs might just give out.
i also have excessive gas which i think is making me really nauseous. the burps are just crazy. i cant eat or sip without burping.. then it wont stop until i take some gas x chewables. i live off those chewables.
as far as shakes, i cant tolerate them. ive tried so many different ones & i throw them up. they absolutely repulse me!
i do eat but i have to be "in the mood" to eat whatever is in front of me or i will just throw it up. my stomach is extremely weak! i cant even tolerate Soups. they turn my stomach too.
i called my surgeon & told him how im feeling & he told me im dehydrated. told me to get on gatorade for a week & see how i feel then. im going in thursday morning to see the nurse practioner.
the gas & the gatorade mixed is making me very nauseous.
i take 20mg of prilosec in the morning, 2- Multivitamins & 1- B12.
im so so so so so so tired of this! i truly regret surgery. i never thought id feel like this but i do.

hey guys!!!!
i miss you all.
im here to update you.
im now 141lbs. i started at 273lbs.
my lowest was 139 but i bounce between 139 & 141. AND GUESS WHAT???
on march 22nd, im having plastic surgery!!
im so excited but so nervous.
i used to be a EE in bras but since being sleeved, i am now about a D cup. you can imagine how they look.. i have granny boobies & im only 24!
so, im having a breast lift with augmentation and im having a fat transfer to my butt. wish me luck & pray for me! i will be back to update you guys.
i love yous!!!

i dont "regret" surgery anymore but i wouldnt do it again if i had to & i regret having the complications although they were out of my control.

i mean, seriously lol. if hes not gonna put gloves on & remove this ****.. i dont wannatalk or see one. lol. my drs refuse to remove thestent because ill get really sick with a leak. they wanted me to stay with it for another week to 10days. they went in to make sure things were ok & fix what they could to give mesome relief. thats not malpractice. as bedhead said, had i woke up with a different surgery than thatsa different story. i knew the complications involved with the VSG and i knew a stent would be the route they would go. GRANTED, they never described noneoftheabove as far as constant nausea & vomitting but from what the drs say, thats not normal & everyone isdifferent.

hey guys!
im not sure if any veterans still get on here or not but some of you may remember me from my horror experience with my leak. if you never heard of me, you can go to the complications section of this site & read the post "i definitely regret surgery..... so far!"
well, let me start off by saying that i no longer regret surgery! took me almost 2yrs to be able to say that but its true! i was sleeved dec 20th, 2011
this surgery almost took my life but at the sametime, its given me life & now im able to give life to my beautiful baby girl.
i wouldve never conceived had i not lost all the weight.
i started off at 273lbs & im only 5'1.
before pregnancy, i went down to 130lbs.
i am now 145lbs & very happy, comfortable & secure with gaining the weight. if anything, i felt way too small at 130lbs so i was excited about some of the weight gain.
baby girl is due 03.18.14 & i cant wait to hold my baby in my arms. <3
