VSG. Started at 235 lbs, am just under 5'2" tall.

I'll be 6 months out next week.

Down 93.3 lbs since October, which means I've lost about 40% of my total (NOT excess) body weight. That's just crazy to me.

6 lbs until I get to "Normal" BMI range for my height; 21 lbs until I get to personal goal, which is roughly the mid-point of the "Normal" BMI range for me.

Hello all,
My bypass is planned for May 8th in Madrid, Spain.
Last night was the first time I started questioning my decision to do the surgery.
This thread just swiped all the doubts!
Congratulations to all of you for your achievements and thank you so much for sharing!

I'm 2.5 months post-op (sleeve) and I'm 30+ lbs down with no pre-op diet. Wish it was faster but at least it'll give my skin a chance to keep up (hopefully)

        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!!
