  5. Welcome to you all. Congrats for getting started on the Journey.
  6. Wow, thanks for sharing so glad you got it taking care of. Congratulations on having this redone. Sorry about your first surgery didn't work!
  7. I was told that they will just go in and absolutely close you up without doing the Surgery if they caint work around your liver because it's Fatty. Even or the fact that I had to sign a surgical consent given them permission to do an Open Sleeve surgery ( cut you from top to bottom of your abdomen ) if they caint get to your stomach due to a fatty liver. Keeping it Real Wow That convinced me to follow the pre op diet I didn't want the large scar. Or cancel months of hard work. I was shock to see open surgery on the consent!!!
  8. You are not required to write here. Lol It just helps to discuss and participate each step of the way. This journey is not a simple one and communicating with others who are going through the same thing is supportive in itself. Good luck!

  12. Congratulations. Sorry your surgery took so long. I read that it happens that some people have to also have hiatal hernia Surgery too. Take it easy. Sip sip walk rest. Repeat Ballermom
  13. I'm curious as to what are your symptoms. And did your physician diagnosis you with dumping syndrome. Because I in particular have reactive hypoglycemia. Mine is like an allergy to simple sugar. In the beginning I thought I had dumping syndrome. I have even once had Splenda in a tea then I ended up in the bathroom sweaty and in the bathroom. But now I get sweaty headache sometimes. Like my sugar drops. This to Carbs.
  14. Congrats to you! What a Merry Christmas to you it will pay off. Congratulations to you!
  15. It's totally normal. I certainly felt the same way. Merry Christmas
