I am happy and sad at the same time.... I finally broke my plateau...of 245...today I was 233....fewww....

I am having alot of trouble with my pre-existing condition of Gastric Antral vascular Ectasia...in my stomach (bleeding veins...caused by long term NSAID use)...also known as G.A.V.E.  I boiled a sausage tonight...put my false teeth in chewed it well...and darn it...if I threw it all up within one hour.

So back to pureed foods and no pork sausages.   I think why I am losing weight is from eating yogurt, skim milk powder, fruit, ice purees... I sure love my MAGIC BULLET...it's been a god send.

Has anyone else here had the sleeve operation... Mine was done on April 12th....a last minute decision right outside the O.R.  ROOM.  and it was because of the G.A.V.E.    I'm losing my hair..and .with the exception of today... I've been taking my vitamin pill.  I have had my GP do blood work for my THYROID as i'm on meds for that... and I have GRAVES DISEASE...so to rule out if it's acting up again.

I am supposed to be having a GASTROSCOPY...to cauterize the G.A.V.E. veins on July 26th.... I don't like the procedure...but I'll tell you it sure makes me feel better the days to follow.

thanks for listening.
