I started my video blog on my gastric sleeve experience!



Recommended Posts

Hey everyone,

I had a video blog years ago when I did the Master cleanse, and when I was trying a brand of Protein shakes. I have just restarted my blog to document my gastric sleeve experience. I want to see if I can get some subscribers here. Please subscribe to my channel and share with others.

The blog is called rebuilding Paul! and I hope you'll take a moment to watch it and offer any suggestions you may have. I want these to improve as I go and this community is very helpful.

Thanks. My doctor likes them. He's putting them on his website. Hopefully I can get more people to subscribe and share. I have about 15 friends who are exercising and dieting because they said I inspired them. So every time I think about cheating on my diet, they get mad at me and make sure I don't.

I was worried they were a bit too long and had too much talking. I'm going to try to make them more brief in the future. I also am going to start having people take video of me exercising so I can do a montage when I reach my goal.

That's awesome! Good for you. I started a blog when I began my journey (about 9 months pre-op) and I still keep up with it now (27 months post op). I get messages all the time that it has helped complete strangers with their struggles and that means the world to me. It also keeps me honest. Everytime I want to give up or go off track I think about everyone who reads my blog and I feel a sense of responsibility to them. it's also great for me to go to it and look back over my journey. Some day in the future when I feel more like my journey is "complete" I'd love to make it into a book. Anyway, just wanted to say I think you will be really glad you did this a couple of years down the line when you can look back on it :-)

Nice blog. I'm wondering if I will need surgery to get rid of the loose skin. My doctor says in exchange for using my video blog he will give me a HUGE discount.

      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!!
