Hi all, I can't post to our feb group from my phone so I'm posting here. I'm at the hospital ready for my 12 pm surgery. My band is getting replaced and I am so psyched to be a big loser again!!

Hi ladies! Bit of a bumpy start for me but improving. I have a morphine sensitivity and get heart palpitations so they go with different drugs. Well the other drug was doing it, too, so it took like 6 hours to get my pain out of control. Of course the majority of the pain is gas, and every time u get out of bed I'm doing better bit by bit. I haven't done a lap yet but can get in and out of bed on my own.

I'm staying overnight and hope to be discharged tomorrow.

Doc said my stomach was really skinny :)

Moving around much better. My gas shoulder pain is diminished and I'm on liquid Tylenol. I felt totally and completely awful yesterday, let me tell you. But it gets better so fast.

I should be discharged in a few hours and start the 3 hr trip home. The doc said because my stomach was so skinny she could have filled it to 4 but left it empty to be safe. For which I'm glad. Trying to drink all the Water I can ... While I still can take a somewhat normal mouthful ... And have decided that Propel sucks. :)

Hope my other Feb 4 bandsters are ok! And I think someone is getting banded today but I can't view the group on the iPhone.

      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!!
