I had my surgery in April2012. I had already reached my goal at 9 months. I have lost a total of 100lbs. I have had not problem keeping if off. This was the best decision of my life!! I went from a size 22 or a 2x to now a size 6. Dr Garcia has given me my life back! Best experience! I took with me one of those gowns that zip all the way up and wore it as a robe over the hospital gown until my last day. It's comfortable and if your bandages leak or the drain you won't mess your clothes up.

      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!

        Have a great Wednesday too! Sorry you're hungry all the time, I'm pretty much the same..and I'm sick of eating the same food all the time.

      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!!
