I heart Dr. July. I've had a very smooth recovery except where I pushed myself too hard. :) And while I'm stalled right now, I just discovered I'm down 4 pants sizes since January, three since the sleeve! :D

Me too!!!

I'm doing amazing actually! I'm almost 6 months post op. I'm at 158 now, so I'm 1 pound away from 100 pound loss! I'm so grateful for everything I've experienced so far. Lately I've had a little bit of problems swallowing so I'm getting a camera put down my throat to check to make sure everything looks the way it should but other than that I'm doing amazing! I hope all is well with everyone!!! post-262421-14586262302323_thumb.jpg

Omg!!!! You look absolutely amazing!!!! Congratulations to you! What an inspiration. You'll have to update after your endoscopy. Do you think you have a stricture? What are you eating daily? Are you sticking to three small meals?

Congratulations on the weightloss. What an accomplishment. What I'd your ultimate goal?

You ladies have given me so much excitement and motivation. I know I've made the right choice. Either of you have instagram? Seems like the Minnesota thread is pretty dead. I don't want to loose communication.

      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!!
