  2. Hello, I had lapband in 2008 (230), then sleeve in 2015 (170). In 2018 had GERD diagnosed along with hiatel hernia and have suffered since. My doctor recommended hernia repair and RYGB surgeries. I was 136 at my surgery date (August 25), and 17 days out at 125. It's been difficult for me, drinking the fluids and getting protein drinks down. I know it will get better, but wondering if anyone else started with a lower weight and struggled? Any suggestions are welcome. Thank you.
