I had Mine May 16th. Things are going slow. I have lost almost 30 pounds. I had mine for medical reasons. My starting weight was 200, but I’m only 5’1”.

How about you?

I started at 401 (May 2017). I had to do a year of supervised diet. I was 358 on surgery day. I was 329 on May 31. But I’ve only lost like 12/13 pounds since then. I was 316 yesterday, back to 317 today. I feel like I’ve been back and forth for the last 3/4 weeks. I feel like since I was heavier, I would lose quicker. Im thankful for what I have lost...but worried it won’t work.

My surgery was May 21 for medical reasons as well. I started at 212 and I’m down to 190. I wouldn’t say things are going slow. Any loss is still good. My eating habits have definitely changed and I don’t feel hungry. My problem is trying to get the amount of fluids in. I focus on Protein first but waiting after eating to start drinking any Fluid is hard. Sometimes I have to wait almost 2 hours before my stomach can tolerate any fluids.

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

        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!!
