I am in the process of going from sleeve to bypass due to GERD. The reflux is so bad. I have some pre op testing to do but I am on 5 different medications more then once daily for this reflux and now it's making me throw up. Love my sleeve but I hate the reflux. I am so happy to see there are others going through it. I am more nervous about this surgery then the sleeve. I am afraid I will chicken out. Ugh.

Misty... I am having the same problem with reflux only mine isn't silent anymore. In the stages of pre op testing. Gastric emptying scan in the morning then nutrition in the afternoon. I am scared. I could stand to lose more weight but I did lose a lot after my sleeve. Very happy actually where I am weight wise. Hope your doing well. Keep the updates coming please!

I am on the program and do move. I will add more cardio and I do get my Protein in. been at a stall for a while. Do you think I have stopped losing? I hope not. Think adding another day of cardio will do it? Michelle xo

I confess I feel like a failure. Sleeved April 2012 coming up on a year and I have only lost 70 pounds and not 100 Michelle xo

Amazing! You are doing great! You will be at goal in no time! Michelle xo

I feel amazing! I can't believe it. I have more energy and I am a happier person. Thank you! Michelle xo

Thank you!!!! You really don't see it in yourself until you put them side by side. actually looking forward to goal! Michelle xo

A better comparison.... [ATTACH]8474[/ATTACH] Michelle xo

The first is right before surgery April 2012, the middle is June 2012 and the last is December 2012. Still have about 40 pounds to go..... [ATTACH]8473[/ATTACH] Michelle xo

I am in the same exact boat!!!! Michelle xo

Thank you girls! Ugh. I was so ready to call the doc and find out what was going on! Ugh. I feel the carb monster to and have to fight him off. I try to keep it basic, Protein first then veggies... But I was scared when I noticed I can eat more dense protein then I had in the past.... Michelle xo

I am 7 months out and I feel like I can eat at an all you can buffet...., no I haven't tried it, but I don't have that full feeling as long as I used to and I feel like I can eat more. Example, I was able to eat about 3 bites of a grilled chicken breast and now I feel like I can eat 3/4 of it plus some veggies. Is this happening to anyone else? Is it stretched? I also haven't lost weight in months! U an starting to worry and get discouraged. Michelle xo

He was my surgeon also and a cutie pie for sure! Lol. Congrats!!! Michelle xo
