Anyone with surprises at their endoscopy?
Sorry I haven't been on. I work a 10 day rotation and sometimes during the rotation I just don't have time to get to a computer lol. The results from the cat scan were inconclusive so they are sending me to Geisinger hospital for more advanced testing. It's a 2 1/2 hour drive, but it will be worth it.

The serving size was 3 cookies. I want to know how 300 calories worth of cookies is considered diet? I meet with my NUT tomorrow. Now I am scared for my weigh in.

I was snacking on cookies that were supposedly "diet" while at a meeting. I had 8 of them knowing that it was too much. Got back to the car and googled the brand. There is 100 calories PER COOKIE! How the hell is that a "diet" cookie? I feel like my whole day is ruined now.

Is baby food a good option
Only if you mix protein powder with it because there is no protein in baby food.

Healthy eating for the whole family!
I am sitting here watching my 4 year old picky eater devour tomato soup, made with 1% milk, with toasted cheese (not grilled!). The toasted cheese is made on "light" bread (80 calories for 2 slices) with skim milk cheese (25 calories) and absolutely no butter, fat, oil etc. He doesn't notice a difference at all! Love it! Last night I made sugar free jello (10 calories) and sliced up strawberries (26 calories) and he thought it was the best dessert he had ever had! He prefers rice cake chips over regular chips and fruit over candy. He may be a brat, but at least I have done something right! I have no fear that he will be over 200 pounds in 5th grade like I was :-)

One more thing off my list!
I had to get below a 59.9 bmi before I could have surgery. I am currently sitting at a 58.something! Now I have to have an endoscopic ultrasound (for the mass) and then we will be able to schedule my surgery! I am so damn excited that I can't sit still!!!!

Anyone with surprises at their endoscopy?
I had the cat scan done on Thursday. I was told that I will get the results next week. Now it's just a waiting game. Ugh. Thanks for everyone's thoughts and prayers :-)

Anyone with surprises at their endoscopy?
It is the size of a golf ball. I am so afraid that it's going to be something terrible. I am a single mother to a 4 year old. My ex is an abusive dead beat. I can't get sick and let the courts give him my son :-(

Anyone with surprises at their endoscopy?
He also found bleeding, infected ulcers from having excess acid in my stomach. I thought that was weird because I have never had troubles with heart burn or anything. He put me on prilosec and antibiotics for that.

He doesn't want to biopsy it until they run some other tests first to rule out things it may be. He said he would rather not open it up until he has to. I am pre-op.

Anyone with surprises at their endoscopy?
I had my endoscopy on the 31st. They found bleeding, infected ulcers, excess acid and a large mass on the wall of my stomach. The ulcers and acid I am not that concerned with. The mass is a whole other story. I am wondering if anyone out there has had any surprises at their appointments? How did it effect your surgery? I included a photo of my yuck for your viewing pleasure lol.
