Where Is My Trophy?



Recommended Posts

I Performed a Task that no Human Being should be able to do and now I am looking around for my Trophy. That's right, my Daughters and Son in laws have a Sunday Funday tradition by spending each Sunday having a meal and going to do an activity. Well I am in the liquid Phase of Pre-op and we were running close on time so they chose a Chinese Buffet so we could get in and out fast. I asked for a Water and couple slices of Lemon and watched and enjoyed my family as they ate. Was it hard well yes slightly but so worth it. My kids respect my decision and offered not to go eat but I told them that this is our new reality and that the time spent with them was always what I enjoyed most on these days anyway. Feb 24th is in just a couple of days and I am going to treat my surgery like it is a Vacation and Cross Mexico off of my places I have never been list.

      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!!
