Hi Rae! I live in NY and I was banded in Sep 2010. My journey has not been without its bumps but I'd sure like to support you and maybe we could buddy each other... Looking forward to hearing from you!

I'm Robb

I live in St. Pete.

I am currently on job assignment in the Middle East, i am planning on being home in Feb for two weeks and have my surgery then. I will be a cash customer for it.

I have not started searching for a doc yet, but price will be a deciding factor. I am open to having the surgery outside the U.S. if there is a huge cost difference.

If you have any advice on docs, please feel free to pass them along.

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

        Have a great Wednesday too! Sorry you're hungry all the time, I'm pretty much the same..and I'm sick of eating the same food all the time.

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
