My surgery was 2/7/19. I am down 55 pounds. I am 3 pounds away from my original goal weight of 160. I may aim for a goal of 150.

congrats on your success. One year out? how does it feel?

I feel pretty good been walk on my incline treadmill a lot. I brought it into the living room before surgery. I do still have some soreness on my right side, I will get tired some times and sometimes I will stand up and get dizzy. Thhinking that’s from three 3grams of sugar I’m my shakes and still taking a medication for high sugar twice a day.

pain on the right side is something I remember. I went bowling the day after my surgery (kind of dumb) and pulled something.

you really need to take it easy for a while after surgery, think about how few calories you are eating.

dont get up to quick.

Has your weight loss been steady?

I think to be really successful here (surgery) you need to follow the rules.

I had a cousin who couldn't follow the rules and has only lost 30 pounds.

Please don't eat earlier than suggested.

Yes I feel good watching the scale go in a different direction. Something I notice now is that every other commercial is food. While I’m drinking all liquids

        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!!
