Well it's now 3 months postoperative and about 40 pounds gone, and I can finally wear my lab coats again ! I bet it's been three year since I've been able to wear them, and I was so stubborn because I absolutely refused to buy bigger ones.

TES yes that's what I meant, it's obviously a sleeve benefit - I never could have lost forty pounds in three months without the sleeve!

Frumpynomore, what's awesome is I've gone down one full shirt size, I'm about to hit another lower shirt size, I've down down two pants sizes, and I suddenly have all these clothes I can wear again. It's amazing what a diff 40 pounds can make in your clothes!

      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!!
