down another 5 pounds

Finally awake enough to update. Surgery went well from what I was told. Was groggy for hours.

Forgot to update earlier today. I'm down another 15 pounds!

Happy Fourth of July!

I feel guilty because I haven't been here in quite awhile.

I feel guilty for only walking half a mile today.

I forgot to update, but as of April 25th I'm down a grand total of 43 pounds

I got a surgery date! July 8th!

I got a time! Surgery starts somewhere around 12:30-12:45 on Monday

I weighed myself today and I'm down 14 lbs.

I'm anxious about seeing the nutritionist on Tuesday

I'm down 21 pounds!

I'm down another 11 pounds!

I'm down another 6.4 lbs!

I'm home from the hospital. I actually came home yesterday. The operation, according to the surgeon, was "textbook" and total time, including hiatal hernia repair, was about an hour. However, I was in the OR for about four hours because after they closed me up they were missing a needle and they had to look for it. They x-ray'd me and did something else and they didn't see the needle in me. I was later told that they'd found the needle on an equipment tray in the back...

I'm now on soft foods!

My leg is hurting me

Surgery on Monday! I'm so excited!

Testing

Today is the big day!

Tomorrow is the big day!
