Recommended Posts

Im so excited.

Hi all, Just want to say thanks to all here on this forum. I finally made it to Onderland and not without you guys helping me.

Some of you may already be familiar with me, because I'm the President and CEO of the slow losers club.

And guys, i had to rethink my position. lol

So, i finally got the break I was looking for. I did the 5 day pouch test that was originally designed for gastric bypass patients. I was out of control with you guess it slider foods like that darn, popcorn. It work to get you back to basics and that it did.

Happy dance here! No more popcorn for me after following the program And as an added benefit i lost down 5 pounds. Yay

Thank you, because we share more in way of encouraging each on this Journey than sometimes with others.

Awesome! We are sleeve sisters, we had our surgery on the same day we are about the same age, and our stats are so close! I screamed a couple days ago when mine said 199, I love the weight loss and the compliments, but I am soooo fatigued. Going to get my blood drawn to see what my Iron levels are. How is your energy level?

Hay Jacee sleeve sis. Well congrats on your Onderland too!

So, yes I suddenly feel really tired. Had to take lots of things like B12 and herbal things for energy thinking about getting labs drawn too. You reminded me to do that this week.

What are you doing for energy? I know my Vitamin D was low. Didn't finish my prescription but will work on that this week.

I am taking sublingual vit b and d however I have always been anemic, and this surgery has not made it any better in fact worse. I bought some Iron to add to my Water, but I just got it (walgreens) Getting my blood drawn to check anemia because last time had it checked it was so low they asked me how I had the energy to get out of bed in the morning, but I really felt fine at that time. Now, I am just dragging, I feel like that is the problem..

      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!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
