Endoscopy Tomorrow..

Well, as I have posted on here before, during my 6th week or so post-wls, I gained 10 pounds back.  My doctor scheduled me for an Upper GI Endoscopy, and the procedure is tomorrow at Georgetown Hospital.  Since my weight gain -- I have lost 7 of those 10 lbs.  Unfortunately, my weight loss has not been as dramatic or successful as a lot of others on here.  I am almost 2 months out, and have lost a total of 33 lbs or so.  It's very disheartening to see people on here that had surgery the same day as I did, and have lost 60 lbs or more!! I hope they find some answers tomorrow, because I still feel like I am eating too much food for me.  Another thing is.. I don't feel full until about 10 minutes after I've finished my meal.  I wish I felt full quicker, then maybe I would eat less. Anyways -- thanks for listening to me ramble, again. Kelly G.

Best of luck with your test tomorrow. I hope it provides an answer, but doesn't show anything seriously wrong!  Hopefully the nutritionist in your program can look at your food journals and maybe help identify the problems as well.  But I will say 33 # in 2 months is awesome!  When has anyone here lost 33 in 2 months before?? :) Take care!

Unfortunately, my "program" didn't have a nutritionist.  I have, however, been tracking my eating on fitday, and have always stayed under the 800 calories, as my doctor instructed.

Hi Kelly, I want to wish you all the best with your endoscopy tomorrow.  I hope they find an answer for you.  Please post as soon as you know somthing. You will be in my thoughts and prayers all day. Hugs,

I wish you luck and an answer to your concerns.

Good luck Kelly!  Let us know what they find.  I've been walking in the AM at Patuxent High School.  Once things settle down, please join me one morning.  Would love the company.  Kids welcome!  Mine will be with me also. TraciL

That sounds great.  I do work most mornings, but on the days I am on the late shift at work, I would love to have someone to walk with.

Hope all goes well and they find the answer to your problems soon, just hang in there it will be worth it!! Stephanie
