My surgery is on Monday too..... I hope. I had my pre op yesterday and that Dr. called today to say that my EKG showed extra beats so my pcp wants me to see a cardiologist :( I have an appointment with the cardiologist on Thursday and hopefully everything will be okay and I can go ahead with the surgery on Monday as scheduled.

I'm so nervous it's gonna get postponed or canceled. I keep thinking in the back of my mind that this won't work, just like nothing else I've ever tried to lose weight has worked.

Hopefully the cardiologist finds everything to be ok and the both of us will be in the hospital on Monday starting our new adventures. :)

July 24th for me. I went to my pre op nutrition class, surgical briefing and last doctors visit before the big day. Even though I don't start my prep until sunday, My wife and I have already made up a list of all the foods that I will need and she is going to make all of my low fat cream Soups that are required. Much more healthy and alot cheaper. I have been looking at some of the crazy prices for all of the "bariatric friendly" foods and sometimes you need to put on the brakes and look at the situation. I am so glad that I have a partner like my wife Betty to help me with this transision.

Tomorrow is the big day for me! I am feeling super nervous today. I feel the butterflies flying around in my soon to be smaller stomach. I can't wait for it to be over! I have lost 9 lbs on the liquid diet. My goal was 10. I am pretty short, so I am okay with 9. Heading to the store soon to pick up a new robe!

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
