Welcome. My surgery was November 5 and I was 257 surgery day. Good luck to you. So far I feel fine just slowly regaining my strength

I only had a 2 day diet so I agree get back on track. Also I would do a bowel prep to get the food all the way out. I had to drink magnesium citrate.

I had surgery yesterday and counted a few more incicion sites than I expected. Surgeon confirmed that I had a hiatal hernia repair. No other symptoms so far.

How many incisions do you have?

Are there any WLS VSG Groups on FB ?

Yes The Sassy Sleevers

I have to have to a hernia repair with my sleeve. How was recovery with both surgeries? Was it more difficult to swallow or longer recovery? Did you have this repair & a you tube channel so I can follow your story. Thanks in advance

I wish I knew the words to say to make it all better. I'm not sleeved yet but my best friend died in August. I never knew that grief can make you physically sick. I've gonna from not eating to eating everything. I no longer go to the gym but its because I feel exhausted. I'm getting better though and hopefully by the time I get a date I will be better. I will be praying that God grants you peace as you deal with your loss.

50 pounds in 2 months is awesome. Talk about taking your life back. I'm not gonna chicken out I'm going to do it. I really need my nerves to just chill out.

May God be with you and your surgeons. Praying for successful surgeries

Thank you. I'm still grieving the loss of a friend. I think that's y I feel like this sometimes. I'm much better than 2 months ago but I'm a work in progress.

What is your motivation to make this life style change? Today I'm struggling and I just need some reassurance. I have two beautiful active kids and a loving husband that deserve me at 100%. I'm always tired and dragging and I'm too young to feel like this but today I'm thinking of all that can go wrong.

I'm waiting on a surgery date and I was wondering if anyone else has/had my surgeon?

We are same age and starting weight. I tall are you? I said 175 too' date=' but really would like to get to 150.[/quote']

I'm 37 and 5'2. I've been approved but I don't have a date yet.

I think I would look fantastic at 145 but I know 135 is what it may take to make surgeon happy..

I'm currently 260, my pcp said he'd be happy with 175 but I wanna push for 145/135. The surgeon said that way when I get older it will be ok if I gain a little

Anyone's surgeon have a crazy sounding goal weight for them? I am scared that my surgeon will set mine at 110 or something crazy like that.. I am 5'2 but I plan on keeping some booty and breasts I do not want to be stick thin... I am thinking 135...

I'm 5'2 and my surgeons goal for me is 135 so you maybe in luck although I was thinking 145 or 150.
