looking great!

I'm a sleeve. Being able to tolerate and eat anything is a double-edged sword for me. It’s great that I don’t have dumping syndrome but, my surgery restriction is less years out. I can gain in a heartbeat and its slow to come off.

We all work this differently. I wish you the best in the months and years to come.

People who say WLS is the easy way out don't know what the hell they're talking about! Way to go!

I hate this comment. I'm lucky no one has said it to me but if they ever do I have my response:

"So What? Even if that were true - which its not - what's inherently evil about easy? If you were told you had cancer and that it could be easily treated with surgery are you gonna say 'No thanks, Doc, I think I'd rather treat it the hard way'? No, that would be ridiculous."

Congrats on your loss so far! Just remember while you can eat anything in portion size to make healthy choices!

Today I had my 7th weeks follow up, all went great, I can now eat everything in portion size, this journey is no joke

Someone told me that I took the easy way out but they don't know the struggle in this journey. Peace and blessings to you all photo0.jpeg

      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!!
