Hi Susan and everyone else! How is everyone today? Me? I still feel horrible. But, I am still alive. I guess that's a good thing, right? Yesterday, I got really excited. I haven't weighed in a few days and when I got on the scales, I had lost a couple of pounds. Now, I know I'm not supposed to weigh everyday, but I did this morning and my couple of pounds are back and they brought a couple of their friends. I am getting sooooo frustrated! It seems that when I loose five pounds, it comes back. I know monthly things happen, but I have been loosing this five pounds since before my last fill in March. Gain and loose, gain and loose. If you add them all together, I have lost 50 pounds, not 33. Ok, I not going to get everybody down with my stuff, so...... the end.

Hope everyone has a good day!

Lisa,

I've been doing the exact same thing! I'm trying to lose as much as I can before surgery by following the liquid diet (not to mention getting in the mind-set to change the way I think about food), but I have those gosh darned 5lbs coming back every other week! We must be trading them back and forth!

You keep them! I don't want them anymore!!! When you get tired of those 5 pounds, send them to some skinny person. That way, I know I won't get them. lol

I'm glad you found somewhere to finance your band. You won't regret it. Just remember, you have to be patient. It's not a race anyway. It's just you doing what you know is best for yourself. Have you set a date yet?

I talked to Ms. Betty this morning and I'm going in for my nutrion evaluation, etc. on April 30th. We're shooting for the 1st week of June when school lets out.

I'm sure you can. When I made my first appointment, I saw Dr. H. But, Dr. K. has done all my fills. Speaking of which, I have an appointment on the 30th at 9:15. When is yours? It would be cool to put a face with the writing. I like to see who is sending messages, know what I mean? I know Susan. Will you be going to the Texarkana, Mt. Pleasant, or Idabel meetings? I know someone that goes to Idabel too, but she musta got too skinny and blowed away. (Sorry, I don't use proper English. lol) She is like everyone else, busy, busy, busy. Where's Genia?

WHERE ARE YOU SUSAN??

Sorry to get off the subject. I think they both see you. Both are in OR when you have the surgery. Which ever Dr you pick, the other is assisting. I think that is really good. Both know what is going on if you ever have trouble.

Well, after I posted that question, I got a call from school. Seems like my little guy was not feeling well. Took him in yesterday afternoon and he has the flu. I guess he got it from me, I was dead last week. I didn't get home from the dr's office until around 6:30, so I couldn't have gone anyway. I hope I don't get in trouble. I was looking forward to it. I have really enjoyed the meetings I have been to so far.

Talk to ya later, k?

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.
