We leave 1 week from tomorrow Vangel, yessssssss!

The exodus to Mexicali is beginning ... Eyfura's surgery on the 10th, Ruthi and I on the 12th, DebKing on the 17th (darn, we'll miss you by 2 days); who else is headed to Mexicali to see Dr. Aceves?

I don't know if I'm excited or nervous ... maybe both?

Looking forward to it being over and a new chapter in my life opening up.

WE LEAVE TOMORROW, I am nervous and excited but cant wait to start a better life

I'm with you Ruthi ... I can't decide either. Talked to Eyfura today - she was on her way to the hospital for her pre-op work and was a nervous wreck ... apparently she can't stand the sight of needles (imagine that - and she's had 4 children!) ... I told her "well, then don't look at the needles -- stare at the ceiling ... I should have told her to have them bring in a really cute intern and she could stare at him instead!

Road trip starts tomorrow ...

Hey lol...they were all great with the pre-op stuff, the hospital is really nice! I was and am a nervous wreck! I totally made a fool of myself too! I told you that I hated needles...I threw up after they got done taking my blood...I could not calm down fast enough! Sigh...now they tell me they will give me lots of meds before surgery so that any needles that come near me will be after I am drugged out of my mind! I totally feel foolish, but oh well, this is me and I HATE hospitals! I got my pics of my kids hanging up abouve my bed, and one of my from smaller years, I keep telling myself this is for me and them, but yeah I am still a mess! See you guys soon, I can't wait! <3

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
