So I'm a year and almost 2 months out of surgery and I went for my annual fluoroscopy today, and everything looks great! they even made a video for me! I'm really excited that everything is ok, and happy to see how my band is working for the first time.

I'm a slow loser, but I'm still loosing! and I got a new fill today, and I'm so sure this is going to put me in the right happy place. I feel really hopefull today so I want it to share it with you guys! :)

I have only lost 22 pounds in a year, mostly in the last 6 months, because, gosh, I was so hungry right after the surgery and with no restriction at all. But after a couple of fills I started to loose weight and I got more energy and I started to swim about 2 months ago, so that's helping too! Maybe is not a huge weight lost, but this is the first time I'm been loosing weight ever! So if you are loosing, and not gaining, that's all you need! Now, I know I can do better, eat better and excercise more and seeing my band today for the very first time it kinda give me motivation to loose 22 more! hopefully in less than a year :)

You can do it! it might take a while, but you are on your way!

      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!!
