I hit my goal weight last year on my first trip to Vegas! It was my 50 bday and I was down to one pill from 8 a day. This year we went for my sister's bday about 2 weeks ago. And I am still within my 5 lb goal weight. We eat our way across vegas too! I just take my food back to the room if I can't eat it all. Also there is a big movement now among foodies for small and sharing! This has been great because that's how I roll! We can order 4 or 5 different things I can try them all and it doesn't get wasted or there not too much to lead me into temptation!

        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!!
