I was revision sleeve from lapband. I am 6 months post op and down 30lbs. I started at 240lbs. Day if surgery i was 215lbs and today I am weighing in at 185lbs. REALLY SLOW LOSS. Definitely gets me depressed about it sometimes, but at least the numbers are going down! My ultimate goal is 150lbs (I think!) :)

I am set to have my surgery on aug16. I am anxious but not any doubt that it's the best decision I have taken. I am nervous because nobody has told me how much the insurance is paying :-( I had to do the endoscopy and my co pay was 283.00 . I feel I'm in the limbo :-(

Well I'm now 24hrs post surgery and other then a painful restless night I'm doing good. Been sipping and spooning all my liquids today. No nausea, that I'm thankful for. I can not say enough about the Dr and service I have gotten and the hospital staff. I'm set to go home tomorrow and looking forward getting home. The view of Juarez out my window is kind of gloomy.

      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!!
