December 2013 Sleever Pounds Lost Log
Had a weird bad day...up 2 pounds one day for no reason, then back down the next. Oh, well... HW 265.8 SW 260 CW. 236.2 I'm kinda old, so likely a slow loser, but I'm good with slow but steady! Thanks and good week to all!

What's your favorite go to snacks?
7 weeks out; no problems with jerky. I carry a package of turkey jerky in my car for emergency meals!

No drain tube after VSG?
Two nights; no drain. Leak test at the end of surgery. I really don't think surgeons are "saying" you have a hiatal hernia when you don't. At least Aetna will not pay more for the hernia repair, but as someone else said, my surgeon corrected it anyhow. I knew I had it from pre op testing. If you want to go to Texas, BMI in San Antonio has great surgeons! Mine was Dr. Seger; Dr Duperier also is. "Top Doc". And, as a side benefit, both are very attractive and have super bedside manner. At least that was my experience.

Have pre/post op care package
Hi, all I am 6 weeks out and doing great. I have quite a few packs of bariatric soups, puddings etc I will never use. Also, some shake mixes with only a serving taken out. (My taster was not happy with protein shakes after surgery.) I know there are folks on limited income who could make use of what I have. Happy to put together a package and send your way...anywhere in US. PM me here if you are interested.

Questions
Even though I did not have frequent reflux before surgery, my doc put me (and likely all his patients)!on 40 mb of omeprazole daily for at least 3 months. Not a hint of acid issues so far at 4 weeks out.
