I'm Approved but disappointed



Recommended Posts

So after 7 weeks of tests and running around getting paperwork and hounding my consultant I've finally been approved...

My sister had her sleeve done back In March and lost 80 lbs...I was very supportive but now that it's my turn she literally told me not to throw my big clothes away because I might gain it back,leaving me feeling like I shouldn't get excited...

Rude. Sounds like she might be jealous you will lose more? Do it for you not her and ignore the haters.

If your sister's surgery was so successful, losing 80 lbs, I wonder why she would be so rude about it? Has she gained any of the weight back? It has worked for her, so why wouldn't she think it would for you? I bet it is a bit of jealousy.

I think she is projecting her own fears onto you.

Or as I have seen in a few clients of mine, people may lose the weight but there is still an insecure fat girl inside and that's how she is expressing it.

Just some thoughts based on the 3 sentences provided lol.

Jeez Louise!

I'd say your sister is going through some rough times right now as a WLS patient. And also acting b**chy, too.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?
