Your only as old as ya feel.

Preparing was the best thing I ever did. Talking to people knowing what to expect. It all helps a lot !! Why did you pick September if you don't mind me asking?

Well I'm scared to death of dehydration because even though I suppose to have an office job I do end up working out in our plant alot. Everything puts off heat average temp in the summer is 105 in the plant. Some places as high as 140 (plastic industry) so I wanted it be be starting to get cool. Plus my title is special projects mgr and were in the middle of a couple of large machine installs so I'm needed more now than then. I waited until mid sept because my 14th wedding aniversary is sept 5 and wanted to have fun before I couldn't for a while:)

Well that makes sense. Dehydrating is like a huge thing an I didn't take it serious till I dehydrated my 2nd day home but gosh its so hard to drink when u feel pain everytime u take a small sip thank god that only lasted about 4 days. But anyways That's awesome and will be giving a great anniversary present to yourself "a new you"! Good luck!!!!

26 and checking in. I'm sure there are more of us young guys lurking around. I have yet to be sleeved - July 20th is my date. But I've been sticking to my diet and doing weights and cardio. Started at 337 and currently at 293. It ain't easy, that's for sure. But I'm having fun with it and I have a great support system so I think all will be just fine.

      Happy Wednesday!
       
      I hope everyone is having a lovely week so far! 
      It's been a bit of a struggle this last week...I'm hungry ALL the time.

        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!!
