I feel great! I have had NO complications what so ever besides the occasional heartburn when I go to long with out eating or drinking. It's very exciting to watch my body change. I went on vacation last week at 3 1/2 weeks post op and I actually felt comfortable in my bathing suit. It's still very weird to me that I can see my collar bones and that I have to buy smaller clothes but I love it and I'm very excited for the changes to come! :)

Had my band for 5 1/2 years and was scared to death to have it removed. Fear of regaining weight of course.

      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!!
