Congratz!

Were you on Metformin before your sleeve? If so, did you stay on it after surgery as well?

yes, I have been on met since aug '07 and I still take it. I do not take it for diabetes, though. I take it for PCOS.

There is no talk of coming off the met at this point. I am not yet TTC, but will be allowed to NPP once I reach goal, which is right around the corner. If everything looks good at my 6 month post op, we will be cleared to move on to medicated cycles.

Thanks! Everyone loses at their own rate, so please dont feel bad! I take in approx 600-800 a day, depending on the day. I have been slacking on the exercise lately and need to get back on it.

        Have a great Wednesday too! Sorry you're hungry all the time, I'm pretty much the same..and I'm sick of eating the same food all the time.

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
