Been awhile since I've been on here I'm 8 week post op. still having issues getting food to digest properly. But I'm losing which is amazing. So Jan 2012 I started at 304 I'm now 229. 268 at surgery on aug 29. Love the reaction I'm getting from friends and family but most of all I love my new body and lifestyle would not change for world!!!!

Congrats! Sounds like you are doing great. I'm from T.O and I had my surgery on Sept 5. Sounds like we are at a pretty similar place. What foods have you been having problems with digesting? Hope things improve for you soon. Good luck.

Hi Crystal, I'm Patricia. I had my surgery at Toronto Western on Sept 5. So far everything has been great. Are you home already? Good luck, if there is anything I can help with let me know. The first few weeks were frustrating. Make sure to not over due things, I remember getting tired so quickly. Take care.

      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!!
