Finishing up 2014 for our March group



Recommended Posts

Just a quick note to all my fellow March surgery buddies. This year has gone by so quickly. It seems like just yesterday we were all consoling each other with first going thru the pre-surgical process, the never ending appointments, the waiting for approval, the pre-surgical liquid diets, Protein Shakes, pains, post-surgical food issues, ect...... We're mostly 9 months in and I for one have had such a great year. I feel awesome and have had no real complications to complain about. I've come to terms with food and my emotion, they are no longer dependent on each other which is a huge milestone. If I'm sad, happy, nervous or whatever I've learned how to work thru it, not eat thru it. Life is so fun and exciting again, my energy level is off the charts. So to each and every one of you, I hope that you're doing as well as I am. I hope you've learned to deal with your new self and that life is everything it should be for everyone.

MERRY CHRISTMAS AND HAPPY NEW YEAR TO YOU ALL.

And you - Holy cow, 139 lbs - You have to feel awesome!!! I can't believe how much I've lost and how much life I've recaptured. This has been by far the best year I've had in a long time.

Here's to a future of fun, health and LIVING!!!!

        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!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
