Hi Laura!!

Oh my word bird!! Sounds like a busy house this evening!! I bet you were ready for down time!!!

The new dentist sounds a little but crazy!! But thorough is always good!! Is he new to dentistry or is that a normal exam?

Today had a hard start!! Kidney pain!! Blah!! The great news is as the day progressed things eased up! :) So lucky! I was well enough to go out on a date with my hubby tonight!!! :) it was great fun!! :) my sister watched little Venla!! This is our first time going out on a date since surgery!!!

Do you get results from your scan tomorrow?

Do you have chills?

Best,

Sannah

Hehe I told the other mothers that sure their kids can come over... That I'm just going to let them drink beer and invite girls over! :P

Hehe.. I did feed them pizza though and then walked them over to the ice cream store to hop them up on sugar first before they went home!!

Sorry your day started out rough... But happy you got to go out on a date!

The radiologist will send his report to my doc in the next couple of days I hope!

Haha the dentist was not "new" she is just into oral health like crazy! X-rays panoramic scan a tiny camera in my mouth to chart every tooth measured my gums?? Lordy my mouth is tired!

Where did you guys go tonight?

I had a leak , but my doc caught it in surgery. That was 3/11.

He said he restapled that area-at the top. Before I was discharged he had me do a postop "barium swallow." And of course- the dose was a baby dose. How many of you that had leaks had a "swallow" before you were discharged?

My surgeon does a barium swallow leak test on everyone the day after your surgery. You can't drink anything until after you pass the test, so day 2 can be pretty miserable--but I'm so glad the he does it. I looked it up on PubMed and this process does help prevent unidentified leaks causing an issue later on. I think most surgeons also do the leak test during the surgery before they close you up.

Hey Laura,

Man!!! Well, that exam sounds great!!! Jaw ache?

I love your plan! Pizza and icecream!!! Easy and they will be bumped up when they head home!!!! That is so great!

In Portland, we are really into having our neighborhoods named and they are often uniquely filled with character. We used live in a neighborhood called Hawthorne, its known for liberalism. We went back to one of our favorite little pubs and played some cards. Hubby had a good IPA and we played cards. It was a little slice of heaven!!! We will get back into our older neighborhood with all our hippies!!!

Tell the radiologist to hurry up!! Golly!

Best,

Sannah

Agrgh... No fighting people!!! Let's keep the peace!

Aww yes a day without kiddos!! Enjoy mama!!

I just got a call from the cardiologist!! :) yay!! I am healthy enough to do as I please!! I was previously approved to walk and lift 3lbs. Haha. Venla is more than 3lbs. ;) silly doctor!!! He knew about her. :)

No not nervous at all. Happy to hear his opinion. I am at peace with it all. If I have to do this alone, I will live!! It won't be fun!! I have my family and your support. I can do anything right!?

Any plans for the week?

Sannah,

Awesome that you can lift Venla free and clear!

Oh I spoke to soon! Now my daughter has friends over! Oh well better here than running around town!

I understand what your saying about your appointment tomorrow. It seems that now they were able to take away one thing (the spasms)

It's been a little better?

I still have to tackle my fish tanks this week. Which is a lot of work but the up side is going to the fish store to buy my salt Water and talk to the cute boys that work there! :P

Once in a while my husband likes to tease me and say he's coming with me to the fish store to ruin my fun. :)

What about you are you doing anything else this week?

Hey Laura,

Fish tanks eh!? I bet they are so pretty!!! How many do you have?! I could watch the fish swim around for hours, it's so relaxing!!! Flirting with the boys eh!? Extra fun!!!????

Well, I think your right!! The girls are better off at your house than out and about!!

Not sure what I am going to do! Exercise since I finally was approved to do whatever I like!!! :) I have a precor elliptical here and now I can finally put that bad boy to use!! I aspire to be a runner!!! ???? I have a long ways to go!!!

I have a personal health coach she called for the first time today. She is going to call me again in Friday so we can talk about my urology appointment.

Doing anything fun for the weekend?

Hey Laura,

I forgot to reply about my esophageal spasm. It's all good as long I as I take the medicine twice daily. Isn't it strange? Tomorrow will be one week of being able to eat without severe pain, nausea and vomiting!! ????

Hi Sannah,

I've never heard of a "personal health coach"

What is it?? I'm glad your cleared to get moving again. But don't go over board! Lord knows I don't :P

I have two tanks one of them is a "pico" coral tank it's only 2 gallons and only contains corals, star fish and one tiny clown goby. The bigger tank has mostly corals too but a few fish and a pesky shrimp that I swear one day I will eat!

He steals all the food out of the corals mouths when I spot feed them!

I'm glad the new medicine works for the spasms..

I wonder how long you will have them and have to take it??

Laura

I tried to take a picture but its really hard with the phone...

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
