I have a question I'm three and a half weeks. And I still tend to have a pain on my right side kind of by my ribs I'm assuming it's from the bigger incision but I never hear of anybody complaining about pain still at this point I seen my doctor Friday yeah this is getting better and I said yes and he said ok it will go away but it's frustrating because it's hard for me to work out or do anything because it'll start giving me pain I don't know if my muscle heals wrong or what does anybody else have this issue

Hi I am 5'1 I started at my highest weight at 211 with diet and exercise and phentermine got down to a good 145 but seemed to gain real easy and kept yo yo-ing after a knee injury and went all the way up to 178....so determined not to gain anymore I knew I couldn't do it with just diet alone and maintain without the sleeve so will be getting it done Oct 13th. So I am hoping this will work.

I'm a bit nervous my rep mention that I'm probably the most petite patient they've ever had. I'm already a complicated case because I was born with my intestines on the outside so I have multiple adhesions or scar tissue in my abdominal cavity

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      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!!
