From Fat to Fit sleeve Diary

[violetangel]

I've just done body combat because I feel so guilty. I've had six mini mince pies, a slice of Christmas cake, a Green and Blacks chocolate bar and M and S trifle. What's wrong with me!!

You have food issues!

It would have been a lot less than in past years.

Sugar is addictive. Once you start on that sweet stuff it's impossible to stop xxxx

Tomorrow us a fresh start - kick ass!

It's been a difficult time, the head battle at its worst! It would have been much better if none of this food was in the house

Reflux is awful I've had band induced reflux for over three years just converted to a sleeve so obviously very concerned to read your story although the hernia could also be responsible can they not repair that instead of doing a bypass conversion
Hope your ok hugs xx

That's what I'm hoping for Hun.

I am going back to see the consultant on the 16th Feb. I really fee in limbo waiting to find out what's happening.

I have lots of new strange symptoms as well. For example, my stomach gets massive at night and it's so uncomfortable. I look six months pregnant. My bm are normal and so it must be to do with the hernia or reflux. I think I'm stressing because I don't know what it is, or what is going to happen I be future.

I am still doing my classes - I was to hit the gym by my consultant - but I'm suffering a lot of abdominal pain and I don't know if I'm making it worse for myself.

 

[violetangel]

Just thought I would do an update. Not posted for a a few weeks. Amy advice would be welcome!!!

I am still suffering from severe reflux and I have a small hiatus hernia. I am only 7 months out though. I handed in my notice at work Christmas, because I had to have so much time off sick with the reflux.

My consultant (who has been really good) has mentioned the possibility of doing a sleeve to bypass conversion, but he's waiting to see if I improve. I've had an endoscopy and barium swallow which showed the hiatus hernia and I am hoping my consultant will offer to repair it.

Also the weight loss has completely slowed down and I wondered if this could be due to the hernia and or the reflux? Has anyone else has this happen due to reflux and or hernia.

I did have a follow up appointment next week but it's been cancelled and so I'm waiting for a new appointment. I really do feel in limbo land.

Negative to positive though I have really toned up by going to the gym and doing lots of classes and although my weight loss has slowed down, I am feeling an looking good. I am can run for forty minutes on the treadmill and that's a new NSV.

 

[Monalisa]

Good to hear off you was wondering how you are I just mentioned you to cld86 who you've quoted above. What a shame your appointment has been cancelled I'm three weeks post op band to sleeve have none of the dreaded reflux back yet but it's prob too early too tell
Can't really answer your questions but maybe weight loss had slowed cos you've gained muscle tone. Hope you get sorted very soon keep us updated thinking of you x
