Thanks! It did. Found out I am down 20 lbs from last month (surgeon wanted me on a liquid diet already for four weeks only for me to find out that that was from his old hospital as he is new to program and then they said three weeks and nut just said two yesterday! Whew the roller coaster of off again on again liquids!). Got all my hospital info and packing list! Talked NUT liquid diet and sold my Lion King tix since I will be on "bowel prep" and she told me for my own good don't go! Lol. Darn it though cuz I havent seen it yet! Starting to get super nervous and excited....

      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!!
