Any Iowa sleevers?



Recommended Posts

Surgeon's office got me in right away. They said it was a disposable stitch my body was rejecting & causing infection. She pulled the stitch and told me to clean it really good and it will heal really fast now. Thank the lord. I thought I did something wrong. They said I should get back on track now that I'm home. And since my scale was broken I couldn't weigh so now they said I lost 15 lbs since I was there 2 weeks ago. I knew my stinkin scale was lying and broken. I don't feel like I lost any lbs though. But my broken scale is what kept telling me I wasn't losing. I bought a new better one today.

      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.
