Recommended Posts

I can't find them anywhere. Anyone know where I can get them.

I'm packing up my stuff, finished my last day at work cleaned up the office, have all my paper work in order, I took the magnesium drink so gross nothing yet but I'm sure ill be up later taking care of business. I'll head over to the hospital around 11. They called and said my time is now 2 not 1.

Cried a little so I hope its my only breakdown.

I found mine at Walgreen. Good luck! I took the magnesium stuff too, disgusting. Nothing yet but I'm starting to hear some gurgles.

I'm packed too, do you have the biotine mouth spray or oasis for dry mouth? I found that at Walgreen's too.

I found mine at Pathmark. I have to be at the hospital at 6:30am for my surgery, which is scheduled for 8:30am right now. Heading to bed very soon, though not anticipating getting much sleep with my nerves being what they are right now.

I have to be at the hospital tomorrow at 5:30 am. I should be thinking about sleep but that's not going to happen. I'm scared, nervous and I've got doubts running through my brain. Is this really what I have to do? Can't I just keep on the liquid diet for the rest of my life? Maybe a personal trainer and liquid diet for the rest of my life...

I found mine at Wal-mart. Just want to mention my heating pad was my bff for relieving gas. My gas was in the chest in lower back and it made a huge difference. Good luck tomorrow!

My emotions are all over the place, too. And I'm certainly having doubts and questioning what I'm doing. But I also know that I've done everything I can possible in attempting to lose the weight without medical intervention and nothing worked. I just keep telling myself this is for the best. This is the start of a new life for me!

I bought mine at Walmart. They had cinnamon and mint. You can find them with the stomach aids.

Good luck.

      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!

      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!!
