-So I had my nut app today and I am down to 50lb lost since surgery. I have more energy and I feel better about myself. Although looking in the mirror I still see the same person. I personally don't see the weight loss but others do.

-I got into trouble with my nut because I am Not drinking enough during the day. I find it hard to make room for 64oz and eating enough food for the day. Also I have been getting nauseous and dizzy fairly often. So I need to start keeping track of when I get these feelings. To determine if its dehydration,low sugar levels or medication side effects.

-I was put on nausea medication to see if it helps and I also need to add more carbs to my diet. Overall I am doing better day by day. Its a lot of work and hopefully it will keep getting better for me!

Keep up the good work~~!! Definitely follow the doctor's orders. One step at a time you are rocking it~! You are inspiring me.. I am set for a date of September 13th and trying not to wig out and eat everything I can find ahead of time. You would think I am a starving person... I think the psychological comfort of food will be the hardest to kick for me.

That's awesome!!

How many calories are you eating per day?

Could it be your'e not eating enough and that's what's causing the dizziness?

        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!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
