I am 27 months (2 years & 3 months) out. I was sleeved in April 2015 and have been maintaining my goal weight since September 2016.

So far I've been pleased with my sleeve. :)

This is awesome!! You all are inspiration for me! I need to lose more weight! I have been staying around the same weight for about 2 1/2 years now, like proudgrammy said I do fluctuate about 5 up and 5 down. I did cave in and get a prescription for Contrave a couple of days agošŸ˜” I pray it helps me! I am new to this site and I am loving it!

So question for all you veterans, I'm 9 months out from surgery, at goal weight, feel amazing but I'm noticing some old habits starting to creep back up. In particular I'm having a lot of head hunger, cravings and urges to snack. How do you stop yourself from doing that! I need tips and tricks to stay on track!

        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 theĀ random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
