My surgery was on 4/13/2016. I'll be 27 on may 31st. HW: 220 SW: 190 CW:163 GW: 125. I'm 5'1". I have diabetes, hypothyroidism, genetic high cholesterol, PCOS, migraines, sleep apnea (what my dad passed away of when I was 11), acid reflux, had a bad gallbladder (it was removed on 2/5/16) and fatty liver. I would work my behind off at the gym 5 days a week for 2 hours each day. I had a personal trainer and nothing ever seemed to help. For those of you with hypothyroidism, y'all should know what I'm talking about. If you aren't on the right medication, you won't lose weight you will keep gaining. I found out soon after my daddy passed, I was 12 (he passed in march, i turned 12 in may) that I had hypothyroidism and I'd have to take medicine the rest of my life for it. Then when I was about 17 I found out I was now a type 2 diabetic. 10 years later, after I found out I was diabetic and going on 2 months post operation on 6/13/16, I haven't had to have any insulin since the first day post operation. My bs stays btw 100-130. I was cleared from surgery on 5/24/2016. I am not so tired now and I can't wait to meet my goal weight! Good luck everyone with their journeys!

It is horrible. You will be emotional. I cried. But you can do anything you put your mind to. Think positive! Sent from my SM-G928V using the BariatricPal App -

I had surgery on 4/13/2016. I had to stay 2 days in hospital bc of my nausea. I am in pain [which was expected] but not as bad as yesterday. We are about to leave hospital hopefully in the next 30 mins. I have gotten my nausea under control and hopefully it will stay under control with this 2-3 hour drive back home. I can't wait to start seeing progress! Sent from my SM-G928V using the BariatricPal App
