Funny story I thought the Mexico sleever would fine musing



Recommended Posts

I went out to dinner tonight with my family to a Chinese Restaurant. I know not a good choice for food but It was more to be with the family than to eat. As dinner winded down,the conversation turn to my surgery. Mostly negative so I won't repeat the whole conversation. After about 30 minutes defending my decision for WLS, the waitress brought me my fortune cookie and the bill.

The fortune cookie read.....Sometimes travel to new places leads to great transformation.

32 days and counting!!!!!:whoo:

I had Chinese yesterday. Actually my wife wanted it the night before so I ate some mongolion chicken with onions over three meals, that night and two yesterday. I skipped the rice. The restaurant decided to make it super spicy. I used to love spicy foods. I am paying today. I am four and half weeks out. I probably should have waited a little longer. I am in such pain today in my stomach and throwing up all night I called in sick from work today. Just laying in bed with my computer.

Love the fortune and love chinese food too! I told my Mom that I would explaine anything about the surgery, but she can't use emotional blackmail or put down my choice of having the surgery if she ever wants me to include her in whats going on in my decisions. It has curbed her tongue and we have better conversations now.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.
