Five months postop and no regrets!



Recommended Posts

I have lost 57lbs and gone from a size 24 to a 16. My quality of life has improved exponentially. I am doing things I love again like playing softball. I hurt less and I can do so much more now. Today, I cleaned out my closet and promised myself to never go back and to keep moving forward. I am so glad I had the surgery.

I am only almost one month out and feel the same way. I don't see anything I have lost (other than weight!) but what I have gained in my life.

Congratulations! Amazing!

It was so liberating to throw away ( donate ) my entire closet at different stages… Never going back! We all had those different sections of the closet just in case, right?

        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!!
