TOMORROW IS THE 1ST DAY OF THE REST OF MY LIFE



Recommended Posts

I'm not scared (as I mentioned before) but I can't sleep. Anxious like a kid on Christmas Eve. Today I'm on full Clear liquids. I am imposing NPO orders on myself after 6pm today and not midnight. I'm mentally getting ready for L.A.S. = Life After Sleeve. This has been a loooooong journey. Three or six months is nothing compared to being overweight for 25 years. I'm finally ready. At 36 I am ready to break up with fat and find another body to get involved with. I've been up a while listening to Killswitch Engage to calm down. People say often that they can't wait. I could but why the HE** should I, LOL? Friday is near.

I feel like the person who's next in line at the bank.

I really want to take this opportunity to thank everyone here at VST for their advice, kind words and inspiration. I honestly believe without this site I never would have gone this far with the Sleeve. I would have nixed the idea and tried another fad diet. I would lose maybe 40lb and gain back 60. Push myself deeper into an abyss and try yet another diet. Thanks everyone. I'm gonna read through posts on here to learn and gain more knowledge.

See y'all on the "Loser's Bench"!!!!!!!!!!!!

CRNA school is awesome I am told. Check out Keck (USoCal) and the program at Cal State Fullerton. All they usually require is 1-2 years of ICU experience. Most schools do. It's like being an Anesthesiologist with no call (sort of). Go do that, man!!!

      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.
