Take time to read as much as you can all around the board threads. Everybody's experience is different and you may or may not experience what another has. Reading the boards has helped me know what to expect or not expect..what may happen or not so you can be fully prepared. I had the sleeve so mine is going to be different.. but reading the boards will get you more information than a limited number of responses to your thread. Good Luck and welcome!

Your new tiny tummy will rule you for quite a while, but once the two of you make your peace, you'll be grateful for her restriction. I have had a rough road myself, but I would not go back to before.

Did you guys do 1 week or 2 weeks of liquids? How long before you went back to work or school?

1 day liquid before surgery and 2 weeks after. I went back to work after 1 week of licking my wounds. Walking a lot after surgery is the key to quick recovery.

And also on the 15th Lady Sin, one of my favorite posters and Kay C. I would love to meet all my Bari'pals on here but her especially, and I think she is only one state away.

      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!!
