several ppl have asked me how things are going. tomorrow will be my last day of liquids. I have lost 6 lbs total. I have had no reflux or spasms since the Fluid was taken from the band. I didn't cheat although it was hard, really hard. Wednesday when I start soft foods I know it's going to be even harder. I will be eating as if my band is restrictive. I know I will be hungry all the time. but my desire for my life with the band is stronger than my desire for food. thanks to all of you that have sent me get well wishes. it really helps having all of you that understand what I am talking about. my poor husband tries but he is just do it type of guy and doesn't get the emotional side of things. but he is very supportive and tries really hard to see how hard all this is. best to all, take care of your band.

      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!!
