    My journey

    My journey

    So my journey started about a year ago Aug. 2015 I started seeing a professional dietition and started adipex. My starting weight was 252 lbs i felt terrible had a hard time breathing especially with mild exercise. I was not modivated it took all my energy to play with my daughter. I tried everything to loose weight but lets face it i always felt hungery and even with diet and exercise my weight loss would yo-yo never loose more than 10 lbs then the following week i would gain double. So with diet changes, meds for appetite suppressant and exercise My results were a weight loss of about 15 lbs after several months then i started slowly gaining back:( i felt so frustrated so when my primary doctor suggested having the gastric sleeve i dove into research and set up a consult orientation with Dr. Sarantos who was amazing i went to the orientation and decided that the gastric sleeve was the option for me. Afterwards i had lots of tests done to determine if i qualify. Months passed by i met all qualifications and was told i would be called with my surgery date. In the mean time my husband and myself both were in a freak accident and both suffered broke legs. So my surgery was postponed..... I had to be able to walk before i could have the surgery. Few weeks about 8 lol passed by and i felt that i was finally able to schedule my surgery. So surgery was scheduled for april 28th 2016. The kicker i had to start my pre op liver shrinking diet that day. I was still walking with crutches at this point and had to negotiate with my ortho md for a walking boot bc he wanted me in a cast for 3 more weeks well i got my way and i had 2 weeks to start walking again. Pre op took all day lots of tests done. Night before surgery im nervous but excited!!! Had to be at nfrmc by 6 am so left my moms house around 4:30 am arrived receieved my iv and off to dream land i went. See story cont.. Part 2 so when i awoke i was very nauseated ???? i vomited several times it was awful i ripped open my incisions the next 2 days were the worst of my life i will leave out the details. ???? however on day 3 i started feeling better ???? for the first week Clear liquids some nausea and soreness week 2 progressed to full liquids felt good a little weak but thats to be expected. I had a hard time drinking more than 30 ml = 1 small med cup. Week 3-4 HUNGERY LOL i started soft pureed foods like fish i ate alot of fish and some grits, mashed potatoes, ice cream. I will admit i did add in a few cheats ???? but im only human and mind you its been a month snice ive had any real food. During my 2 week before until my 4th week post there was so many birthday party, anniversary and other celebrations that i missed because i could not eat:( part 3 to come on a positive note no more heart burn thanks to hernia repair that was done as well during my surgery...
