My WLS Center (Swedish in Seattle) has reached out to me yesterday to participate in promotional material (web site and flyers) in addition to upcoming TV spot. What a wonderful validation of WLS as a solution for morbid obesity!! It will be so much fun and there is also swag and incentives that come with doing it. :)

I have not told anyone at work about my WLS nor have I seen more then one person on my team face to face in the last 12 months (work @ home and not traveling on business due to tighter controls). I told her at a lunch that my transformation was from high Protein, low carb diet and running / cross fit ( she does both types of exercise also). I guess the cat will be out of the bag after these upcoming events. <grin>. Danger: Uncharted territory! Lol.

Thanks everyone!

The rewards of post op success far out weigh the little inconveniences along the way. Living life now and not afraid to get out there and give back to others as well as enjoy all the new experiences. My success is really the culmination of feedback and guidance from all of you. We can continue the long trail of successes on VST by keeping it a positive, fun and energetic experience for everyone. Reading daily certainly keeps both my spirits and motivation up.

Removing morbid obesity and evil clutches of unhealthy eating from my life and replacing it with a fit and meaningful daily existence has really set me free to have a positive influence on the world around me.

      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!!
