  2. Also i am very happy with my sleeve!!
  3. Im 5 years in Oct and when i had the endoscopy before surgery i had a slight hiatal hernia.ive always suffered from heartburn on and off but everything was ok.until 3 months ago when i had my 3rd endoscopy and was told i had an ulcer(my biggest fear with this surgery) and my hernia is alot worse.so i was put on carafate for 3 months and had my hiatal hernia repaired 5 days.another endoscopy was done right before surgery and showed ulcer healed but i had a massive amount of scar tissue from acids in my stomach.also my stomach is still very irritated and i just got back from check up today and i have to be on pureed foods for 4 more weeks and still on protonix for 2 months more(ive been on protonix since my sleeve,5yrs!)also have to get another endoscopy in 6 weeks!omgg,this acid needs to stop already!anyone else been down this road??? 10/6/2014-214lbs 7/15/2019-149lbs

  21. yep looks like mine!minus the incisions.i had single incision thru my belly button,no scar at all just loose skin and stretch marks!
  22. I had my first glass of wine 1 month out.took me a few months to get to a full bottle!!im a white wine drinker and I have no problems.the sugary drinks make me feel sick and oh how I love a pina colada in the summer but after 2 im sick!!
  23. my sister who I barely talk to does this to me all the time in front of people I don't know.and believe me its not like shes complimenting me and telling me I look great either.its always yelling acoss the way from me"how much weight did you lose"?or what are you going to do about loose skin?i really cannot stand her and shes the only one who says it.
  24. my gutyhad it 2 months after me,he got to his goal in 5 months!im 6.5 months out and 12lbs to goal!smh men!
