Recommended Posts

Sooooo after a long battle with the bulge and beginning a weightloss program,moving, leaving 1 program ,attempting weightloss on my own...failing miserably.. Beginning an another program getting all the way to the end & scheduling surgery only to be told 3 days before that my insurance at the time (aetna) was the only sector of that insurance that had an exclusion.... Sad face!!! Then,I got the word that my employer would be switching to new insurance Happy face!!! ...So Jan13 my new insurance kicked in (IDX blue/highmark) and i was told I had to do the 6 mo diet ordeal ... Well my 6 months are up my paperwork was submitted on 6/10 and 2 days later I got the call that IM APPROVED !!!!... NO QUESTIONS NO ISSUES ... So 8/14 is my date im so happy but it still dosnt seem real !!! This sight has been NOTHING short of a best friend for me encouraging me holding my hand and giving me hope and determination that i can do this and i deserve this so thanks to all of you beautiful postive people .... Keep on losin:)

      Happy Wednesday!
       
      I hope everyone is having a lovely week so far! 
      It's been a bit of a struggle this last week...I'm hungry ALL the time.

        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!!
