I am 3 years post op from gastric sleeve and I want to do a revision, however the provider wanted me to have a esophageal x-ray before making the final decision, during this x-ray it was determined that I have a Hiatal Hernia.

Has anyone else that has had the sleeve ever gone through this before and if so what did you do?

I want or need to lose 60 pounds so that I don't have to do the revision any ideas on where I can start, I love Water aerobics, walking and weights.

most people get the hernia repaired during surgery.

I didn't have the hernia when I had the surgery 3 years ago.

Yea what i am saying is if you do the revision, They can repair it then. But loosing weight is eating right and exercising. Find something that you like. I started going for a walk for about an hour a day at night (Its too hot here in Florida for the day lol) if you have a gym in your area they probably have classes for Water aerobics and other ones. my mom goes to those types of classes a couple times a week.

Thanks for the information I'm going to give myself until September to lose as much as I can and if not at the desired weight I want I will consider the revision.

Happy Easter and best of luck to you in your weight loss journey.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞
