I have lost about 80 and I'm stuck. I'm stuck because of my own fault. I'm not eating or exercising the way I should! I don't want to go back where I started so I need to get it together!

April 8th! Little late posting lol. Anyone else with this date? How are you doing?

I would absolutely NOT get the surgery again if I had the choice. On the day of my surgery I cried because I was scared of complications. The surgeon assured me that the complication rate was low and I was healthy. Well, guess who had complications? This girl!! It's been the worst 2 months of my life. It is absolutely your decision and lots of people are happy with it, but I wouldn't reccomend it. Good luck on your weight loss and decision!!

I went back to work after 1 week.. but I shouldn't have . At the end of the first week pain was unbearable and I ended up with complications. so, I've been off for another 3 weeks, in and out of the hospital. I'm sure everything will go awesome for you, so a week seems reasonable

I just keep hoping for the good parts to come. So far, I haven't seen them

Hello Everyone, I've been reading a lot on here, but this is my first time writing. I actually don't see a lot of complications on here which is Wonderful! I had Gastric Sleeve Surgery on April 8th and it's been a nightmare ever since then. It started with a horrible pain on my left side.. I thought maybe it was sore from the large incision, but it continued to get worse. I was actually already back at work at this point.. I'm stubborn. I went to have a CT scan and they direct admitted me to the hospital. Originally they thought it was a leak along with a hematoma and infection. A drain was put in and it was really super painful. After a few days of being there they let me go home. My next appointment was a week later and another CT scan was done... again thought it was a leak. My surgeon put in to have a scope and admit me... again. This time they put a picc line in my arm and have to get my nutrients through TPN and clear liquids. This has been going on for about 3 weeks. I also had to go to the ER with my heartrate at 236! And again, admitted me. I guess the good part of the story is that I didn't have a leak!! I also was able to get my drain removed Last Monday. No weight loss while on TPN so I'm hoping they take it off soon. Not looking for anyone to feel sorry for me, just sharing my story. Wondering if anyone else had any complications?? Have a good day!
