Nope, this is not going to turn into a cheeseburger thread. That is like the 6th level of hell. Damn, my dinner came up, all 4 ounces of pork. My tummy did not give me a pass. Not the drink though. I think it was that pork at Daves. Better luck next time. :)

I didn't use a straw for the first 9 months, then after I did I said "hmmmm what was all the fuss about"?!?!? And have used one every day since then.

      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!!
