Let the scolding begin....

No I havent been on here....NOR have I been on my youtube account in almost a year. I really honestly thought I was going to be this awesome example and keep up with all of this stuff and really show you guys, start to finish what it was like to have the sleeve. Well In that aspect I did fail, and to the general public who was relying on me for that information I am truly sorry. It was just one thing after another, my laptop broke, my dad left for Iraq, I moved, twice, I had school and work and all that Jazz. I have to give big ups to the people with families to take care of and jobs and lives that still find the time to be dedicated to this...I am far too lazy.

REGARDLESS

It has been almost a year, My surgiversary is April 20th, so I figured I would hop on here and let everyone know what was up with me and that I am in fact not dead, contrary to popular belief. My starting weight weight was 278 and I am Very Happy to report that I am now down to 165, 160 on a good day lol.....I have been slacking lately a lot. If I work out my body responds with weight loss...and by work out I mean walk. If I dont I still lose, JUST very slowly. Now as for my diet, lemme put it this way.... I dont have one...Yes punch me in the face, what was the point of surgery? Trust me I am always aware of what I am putting in my mouth and I will say that about a month ago I went back on low carb and it really does work. I try to stick loosely to that still. But I am 25, I go out every weekend,so I drink a lot, and On top of that I have a few dates a week...So I eat out a lot...I am hot now So I gotta keep up = D I am very happy where I am but this is not my goal. My original goal was 155, which I am almost there. Of course when I noticed how the weight was falling off of me I created a new goal, which is somehwere in the 130s .....I dont have a whole lot else to say except Thanks to everyone that was here to give me the info I needed to make this decision. I am thrilled that I took the step, and If anyone has any questions for me I'll be around and I swear I'll try and answer this time = D

Thanks

-Tiff

      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!!
