Well, I am all set to get a fill on the 12th. Sorry I can't make RR the night before. I just changed my schedule and am not taking any classes this semester so my only days off are Tuesday and Thursday. And since I am the only one with a job I really can't miss work. I am really excited to get back on with losing. I started weighing myself again, and must say that I am pleased that I haven't gained anything being as loose as I am. I just need to focus on staying on track for me.

Sorry we're going to miss you! But I understand.

I am going to get my first fill in over a year on Jan 28th. It's the day before my two year Bandiversary and I am ready to kick the new year off. I've lost a lot on my own, but I'm ready to return to using my tool! I have 96lbs left before I'm at my final goal!

Prty,

You can do it! 2 lbs a week is a reasonable goal and I'm sure you'll get to goal this year.

I want to get to goal by my birthday in July..think i have gotten a little lazy, as it is nice to be in smaller sizes, but I'm still not where I need to be.

2010 is OUR year! :smile2:

Hi Julie,

I ended up gaining a couple of pounds Christmas, but got them off right away. My total loss during the challenge was 7 pounds - not the 12 I was hoping for - but still a loss.

What time do we meet at RR on the 11th?

Hi everyone,

I just have to butt in with a quick question:

For those out-of-towners, how do you travel from the airport to the doctor's office on the days of your fills? A cab price is around $125 (one way, yikes!), a car rental is around $100 (per day, that's the best I could find on Expedia) and a shuttle is around $25 (one way). But I can only find shuttles to near by hotels, not the office.

How does this all work?

Since SuperShuttle will take you from your house to the airport and reverse, I can't imagine why it wouldn't take you from the airport to Dr. K's office. Yep... www.supershuttle.com will take you to/from the airport to a business ($38 round-trip to Dr. K's office).

I've never used SS for my fills, but did use it numerous times when I DID live in Denver and needed airport transport from my home.

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL

      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!!
