SBS, Sounds great! The 15th, how exciting! I'm getting mine done in the beginning of 2011, but I don't have a date yet.

Hi I'm getting banded on the 15th also.. .. I also have a lot to lose.. about 125 lbs would put me where I would feel good.

I'm a little apprehensive about the post op part though... keep in touch and good luck!

Thanks for the kind words.

Had surgery Monday morning. Was home by Monday evening. I can get around the house all right, but I'd hate to try to do too much more. Still sore in the sides and abdomen, and it still hurts to breath in really deeply. Throat was raw the first couple days from the breathing tube, but that has went away. Been consuming mostly Protein drinks, Jello, and yogurt so far. May try some pureed meat tomorrow.

      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!!
