I super excited to get on the road to health and fitness. There is so much I want to do!
When do you go?
Welcome Jeff and GOOD LUCK tomorrowgastric bypass tomorrow 10th November
Sorry to hear this news @Iwannabeslimagain, you must be gutted. I had an endoscopy in July which showed a small Hiatus hernia ,my surgeon says ok to go ahead with surgery . I'm hoping that'll still be the case on Tuesday ! Take care, i hope they can sort out the hernia for you.Hi everyone. Well, where to start?? Not good news. I underwent surgery yesterday but my surgeon advised me shortly after recovery that he had been unable to carry out the procedure as I had a very large hiatus hernia and my stomach was very high up within the thorax area. This rules out any WLS including band and balloon. So, this is where the journey ends for me. I wish you all success with your surgeries and on-going weight losses. This is a great site and your support and advise has been fantastic. Thank you and keep up the good work!
Your doing marvelous! Oh you lucky thing only a week on clexane, I was given 28 days worth? Each day the injection is getting harder and harder to do...took me an hour last night and causing stress/acid and BP to raise! Do you think I should check with nurse to see if I can stop after all I am not bed bound. Wish I could sleep in bed lol!Im not always known for my optimism so I keep thinking something isnt quite right, im walking about fine getting up and down out of a chair or the bed is a bit uncomfy and the wind is stuck up a bit under my ribs, but im only on paracetamol, and ive drank about 600mls today. Im on clexane injections for a week, but definitely tired now x

Hi and good luck!!! How are you feeling??I also fly on a Monday, op on the Tuesday and I chose to stay an extra night. I fly back on the Saturday. Easier for husband to collect and easier for me as I have a house full of kids - 5
Have you set yourself a target?
I would definately check, 28 days seems a bit extreme especially if youre mobile, as for me doing so well thankyou, but feel like the bruising maybe kicking in this morning, will need to try and rest more today xYour doing marvelous!

Hi and good luck!!! How are you feeling??
I'm flying back on day of discharge, all being well of course. You certainly do have a house full, I hope you'll find time to rest! I'd hoping to lose 6 or 7 stone which should make me an acceptable weight for my height. I'm only 5 foot so im like a weeble lol. What about you target wise?I also fly on a Monday, op on the Tuesday and I chose to stay an extra night. I fly back on the Saturday.
