Hi, I'm 28 years old. I had my gastric sleeve done September 26th, 2016. My heaviest weight has been 228lbs, on the day of my surgery I was 216lbs, and I'm currently at 194lbs according to the scale at Winn Dixie. As of right now my goal weight is 135lbs. I don't know if that's being realistic or not but that's what I have in mind for now. I wanted to see if I could find a buddy that has more less the same stats as me. I sometimes feel a little alone, although I have the support of my family and husband. I look forward to hearing back.

How are things going for you? Are you frustrated with the Water drinking? I still am, sometimes I just want to chug Water but it ends up feeling very uncomfortable, I can't really explain the feeling.

        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!!
