1 Week Post-Op Doctors Appointment



Recommended Posts

So I went for my first follow up appointment with the doctor today, and it went great! They (team of surgeons and a nutritionist) are very happy with my progress.

The official weight loss for week 1 is ( drumroll please).................. 20 pounds!!!! I am ecstatic about that and very motivated for the rest of my journey!!!

I was also given the go ahead to start on the baby food, so that is one step closer to the sorely missed crunchy food!!!

And I had my first Protein shake today, and it went down easy and seems to be staying down!!

This board has been an awesome inspiration and source of information, and for that I thank all of you, my fellow sleevers!

      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.
