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.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
