I was sleeved on 2/26. Recovery has been a bit slow. I ended up with a huge (12 " x 4") bruise on my left side. The dr did a CT scan last week and it looks like I had a small internal bleed which stopped. Been running a fever with it as my body is working hard to reabsorb the blood. Because of the bruise, I am still need to take tylenol to get through the day and I take a half dose of prescription at night.

food wise I'm up to full liquids and that has been sooo much better than Clear Liquids. I'm finally doing fine with getting enough fluids and picked up unflavored Protein Powder over the weekend to get my Protein increased. Thankfully food is starting to taste good again :-)

So far, I'm down 45 lbs total - 36 pre surgery/9 post. Only have another 100 or so to go :-)

I was sleeved in Feb 26th at 322 lbs. So far so good. I've adapted pretty well to the diet.. I am now on soft foods and 23 days out I have dropped

30 lbs. I'm taking off about 1 lb to 1/2 lb a day. Looking forward to the 280's shortly!

      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!!
