Hi,

I am new to this site and I am 3 weeks post op this Thursday. I have lost approx. 20 lbs. I had the sleeve procedure done through Nicholson Clinic in Plano, Texas, which I highly recommend.

I wish that somewhere either in the Nutritionists classes or the seminar or somewhere - someone had told me that I needed to only eat 900 calories a day for the rest of my life or I would gain weight. That was never mentioned. This may only be my reality but it doesn't matter that it is good healthy food that I'm supposed to be eating - if I eat over 900 calories a day - I gain weight. Don't know that it would have changed my mind - because I am beyond pleased with the results (I'm almost 2 years out) but it would have been nice to know. Good luck to you!!

        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!!

      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!!
