Guest guest Posted January 26, 2011 Report Share Posted January 26, 2011 Ok people I know it's been like forever since I've been on here,but I thought I would post a update on me. This Jan 31th will be my one year mark since vgs sugery. I've lost 90lbs so far (: With this weight lost it's brought on my issues here are the few things I've had to deal with during my past year. First thing is the gerd issue, I loved my stuff from Mexico but when I ran out in six month and I had a hard time finding ones on the market that would work as well ): A friend of mine who also had this sugery was able to come off everything around nine months post op but am still unable too at this year mark. Next issues I just learn about was my stomach meds were not allowing my body to take iron into it system as well, so am dealing with very low iron levels. I have to take my acid pill mid day to allow a few hours for my vitamin to get into my body. I also have to take extra D and iron. Due to low levels I've been told by my family and my work cutomers that I look crappy most of the time,like sickly looking. Not nice but very true.I was alway tired and very pale.No matter what I did I didn't feel better. So other issues am dealing with are in my head. The weight loss still hasn't hit me yet. I still see the old me when I view myself. The extra skin and hang boobs don't help either. Am going back down Feb 15th to see Dr Bello for a reduction and a tummy tuck. I will be in Mexicali in the hospital for 9 days. I hope with the new knowledge of my anti acid meds causing some issues, my body's level will go up and I'll feel and look better very soon. The plastic sugery I know will help most of my viewing issues. So to the next chapter/next year of my new body...... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
