Hi everyone! I am so glad that you guys joined me in the thread. I am excited and nervous about my surgery... but mostly excited. The surgeon I am seeing only requires a three day liquid diet, but today I bought some Protein shakes and am going to start cutting way back on Monday so I am prepared for next Sunday when everything pretty much stops.

I also bought some lovely (eye roll) nightgowns at Walmart today for wearing at the hospital. You know, the fun kind your grandma used to wear that are like housecoats that snap up the front. I figure that will be the easiest as i won't have to deal with putting them on over my head.

Well anyway, I am looking forward to getting to know you all better as we start off on this journey at basically the same time. Great things are ahead!

Hi kbs1010. My surgery is march 9th. Next Friday. I too am looking for a friend to share with. Please let me know how you are feeling about all this. My surgery is at fort Lewis madigan Army Hopital in Washington state. They have tons of experience with this surgery so I pray I don't end up with complications. Never had surgerys or baby's so I don't know what to equate tis to. Good luck and if you like, I'll keep you posted.

It was meant to be. Where are you having your surgery? I actually live in Spokane. In order for my insurance to cover the sleeve, I have to have my surgery ar a military hospital. I'm still so excited to have someone so close.

      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!

      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!!
