I actually did a side by side photo! Left is from July 2012 and Right photo is from Today! I am currently 227 and was 300! Surgery October 9th! I'm feeling great! I sill have like 77 lbs to go so I'm half way there!

HW: 300 SW:267 CW:227 SD: Oct 9th 73lbs gone!!! loveing every minute of it!!! cant belive it! 40lbs since surgery 33lbs pre op!!!

So I was Sleeved 10/9 and since then i lost 40lbs but total of 73lbs total, and i always had pain on my right side before surgery for over a year my gallbladder was fine did tests, well i started having them and since last sunday ive been sick off and on, blacked out in the shower on monday and teusday went to dr and had a uti, they did blood work showed inflammation levels next morning went got ultrasound down,showed i had polups in my gallbladder they wanted to do a hida scan my surgeon told them no they wanted it out made me go to the hospital well they had to do all my tests over and actually found out i had gallstones not polups, and will be getting surgery soon. pain is can be bad but also dull and i dont have all the signs of it, but the weightloss did effect it more. if it still bothers you or gets worse, id get check out, you never know good luck!

Hey put me on a different medication to help prevent gallstones....yes but obviously it didn't work as good lol

I went in and they had to do the ultrasound over again, and they didn't find polyps they found gallstones, so I will be going very surgery within a couple weeks

Well I'm on my way to another hospital.. Since I've been sick on and off since sunday. I went for a ultrasound this morning because my blood levels were high, they couldn't see my appendix but my gallbladder had polyps in it and my primary doctor wanted to do a hydroscan of my gallbladder and it included a nuclear medication and I wanted to make sure with my batriatic surgeon and so he called me from home and he insisted tht it comes out and that the scan was going to be useless and we already know what's wrong! He talked to my primary doctor and now they have called the hospital to let them I know I'm coming to be evaluated by a surgeon and so I might get it out today or very soon! I just had my surgery october 9th well guess well see what happens!!! I'll keep posted! P.s. I am in pain! but I do love my surgeon he knows what's best

I'm gonna bout 11weeks post op and was wondering if I can have some wine? Time I'll have it I'll be bout 12 weeks out and I'm just wondering because I'm going to my family for new years? I'm gonna ca my surgeon and ask but was wondering about you guys if you've done this early?

So in one of my last post i said that i been sick off and on since sunday and that monday i blacked out and teusday i got in with the Dr and he said my urine sample showed i had a UTI, he also did blood work becasue i been getting pains in my side and stomach, well they called me at 7:30pm and i missed it but the voicemail said that my blood work came back and that it showed the inflamation levels were high and they want me to call when they open in the morning to get in asap for a ultrasound to check for appendacitis and they are gonna check my gallbladder and stomach and pelvis area! i know something is wrong!! but hopefully they find what it is!! :/ by the way i was sleeved 10/9/12

I thought id show some pictures of my hightest weight and current pictures...im 70lbs down... 33lbs pre-op and 37lbs post-op my surgery was October 9th 2012..im so proud of myself and i still have 80lbs to go but 70lbs is each considering i could even do 5lb weightloss on my own!!!! This was Sept 2011 This was the day of my wedding..March 2011..(in the middle) This was July 2012..cant believe it! this was Dec 2012 Also Dec 2012 and again Dec 2012

Thanks so much! It's been a long load and still have a long road ahead of me..but one day at a time...

M almost 3 months post op and everything seems to be good but now I seem to be going the opposite direction! Lately have been having pain in my stomach,my right side,constipation, dizzy and lightheaded with black outs, an today I got diarrhea and vomited a little! I'm still dropping weight, and I went to the doctors and I do have a UTI and he put me on meds. He did other tests but I don't like this at all its scary and hurts bad! Tmi but it hurts when u go to the bathroom it's really bad stomach aches and I can tell there's a lot of acid! But I called the dr informed them of my new symptoms and waiting...work sent me home! But for now I'm gonna o lay down!

Ever since surgery I've been getting dizzy and lightheaded. Well I wasn't taking my vitamins and so I started got on the roll with that my protein been excellent...well this morning took a shower...and my husband was also in the bathroom..I shut the water off moved the curtain, then I got nauseated and started dry heveing, then started getting dizzy an then I completely got so dizzy and lightheaded that I blacked out and started swaying my husband was parently yelling at me to sit down I didn't hear him! It's scarin the **** out of me... Have any of you expeiranced this and what was causin it! I'm gonna get into a dr!

Well I went to the doctor...so far I'm fighting a UTI, and they did blood work and checking everything to see why i keep getting dizzy but the uti had some part in it, i just had a Uti week before surgery! But then they will be checking my gallbladder and appendix. And well go from there!

Also forgot to tell ya'll my husband said my face got completely white as a ghost!

Thanks, i have a dr appt tomorrow at 1pm, everything I did today was the same as any other day.... It was really scary!

I'm on my vitamins... Plus vitamin D and a medication for my gallbladder my surgeon prescribed me with...
