Hi TinaD,

Who is your surgeon? I hope to have my surgery at Baylor Trophy Club in November with Dr. Kim. My last NUT visit is next Thursday, 9/27 and then we submit to insurance.

Best of luck with your surgery and let us know how everything goes!!!

I'm in Weatherford Texas and I'm having my sleeve done Sep 24 at the Baylor Medicle Trophy Club. I'm getting pretty nervous any words of comfort or suggestions?

Jazzeeja, I will be praying for you as well. The support of others through prayer and meals for my family has been such a blessing. Don't turn down offers for help. It makes people feel good to help out. God's peace!

Thank you owlmom for your prayers and thoughtfullness. I will be carrying them in with me to surgery. I'm excited and a little apprehensive. I do have a wonderful surgeon and staff, and the hospital is new and high tech. So that should be comfortable, I've done everything for the past two weeks that was required, last two days of Clear Liquids was tough. Now I'm fasting til surgery with just a sip of Water to take meds in the morning. Lost 13 pounds. So hopefully all will go well. I will post as soon as I'm coherent tomorrow. Thank you again.

Hi Michelle! What is your schedule like? I live near Veteran's Park and ArkGirl is near River Legacy. I'm a stay at home mom, so I have some flexibility during the week. Meet to walk or something?

Awesome!!! I work M-F 7-4 and my kids extra curricular lives make me as a single mom a human taxi. I'm trying to figure it all out. This is my first week back at work and I haven't walked since Sunday. I'm tremendously disappointed in myself but I just have such low energy. Staying awake at my desk is a small miracle. I had my surgery on the tenth so I'm praying it will get better when I can manage to meet my Protein and Water goals.

      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!!
