12 week follow up



Recommended Posts

I have my 12 week post op follow up tomorrow. I cant wait to see the Surgeon. He always has great advice and actually better nutrition tips than even the nutritionist :D

His last tip to me was , A great source of Protein and Fiber, you can have as a snack and NO Carbs. Edamame Beans. I have had them in food dishes but I never ate them from splitting open the pod . Had some this week, they were great. I am hoping to have made it to 70 + lb loss tomorrow. That would be great. I am pretty close so hopefully YES

Have a great day all

My 12 week appointment is tomorrow too. I was sleeved 4/27 and will be 12 weeks on Friday. Down 55 pounds since surgery.

70 pounds is fantastic! Congrats! Was that all post-op or pre-op combined?

Good luck tomorrow!

Surgery was 4/23 it was 20 lbs 1 month prior to surgery and as of June 21 at my Primary Doctor visit it was 62 lbs total, so I am hoping for the 70. Good luck at your appointment as well. 55 lbs is great !!! How are you feeling over all ??

      It's been a bit of a struggle this last week...I'm hungry ALL the time.

        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!!
