I have been officially cleared for surgery, ive completed all my testings, gone to the classes, did my pre-op class and have my Protein Shakes ready to go. The place i am going to is having me use HMR 800 and i needed to buy two weeks worth of mix so it was kind of expensive (probably less than i would have spent on food though). Pre-op two week liquid diet starts on 8/22...im excited but scared at the same time! 26 days till surgery..eeekks :wub: . Now i just have to wait for insurance to go through but they say it shouldnt be a problem.

I'm September 10th with Dr. Ortiz in Tijuana. NUT wanted me to lose 32 lbs before surgery.... I've lost 35 lbs so far... Woo Hoo! Can I make it to 40 lbs lost before my surgery? Keep your fingers crossed!

      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!

        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!!
