My doctor said weight loss could be slower when you have hypothyroidism and are post menopausal. You will lose weight but not as fast. Just be patient with yourself

I had a hiatal Hernia and it was fixed at the time of my sleeve in December. No acid reflex

Medicare and my supplement insurance paid for my sleeve here in Nebraska.

I am going to be 67 on July 4th. I had surgery on 12/30/15. I have lost 60 lbs. Weight loss has been slow due to having hypothyroidism. I am walking more, yesterday 2.5 miles. Six months ago couldn't have walked a quarter of a block. I am so glad I had the surgery. I figure I didn't put it on in a year, just glad for loss I have had.

Disappointed and Hiatal Hernia

Hiatal hernias are caused when a section of the stomach is pushed through the opening where the esophagus comes down through the diaphragm. They have to bring that section back down and close the enlarged opening. I had bad acid reflux prior to my sleeve but nothing since. Fixed my acid reflux.
