Yay! So happy to find others that are having their surgery in July! Mine is July 16th and I can't wait. I have a lap band (8 years old)- it failed miserably as they usually do. I am super excited and time can't go by fast enough. ~Madeline

It feels like forever! I am wanting it to hurry up! I can't have surgery until July because I need to use my student loan I get in July for my portion. However, my work is way unstable right now and I worry everyday if I will make it to the time I can take my time off (my work pays 13 weeks 100% short term disability because of my tenure). I need this surgery! Pray for me that the work thig is all in my head and I make it to July! Lily u should friend me! I use this on my phone so it wont let me friend anyone.

        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!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
