whoops ....and yes I did the 3 months of dieting and lost a total of 28 pound (total is 44). I have not lost any since my class ended in early April, but I haven't gained any either. I just have to do all liquids the day before.

Hi KishaE

Dr. Zane performed a sleeve for a friend of mine...There are a few ladies in the site as well. One I know for sure is 'sleeve4me'...She is very helpful and active to the site....

      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!!
