I've finally gone through all my clearances and I get my date September 18th. From what they said they expect it to be the week of October 18th. I'm soooooo anxious at this point. I started at 250, and am now 237. Any October buddies out there? :-)

I'm sooooooo anxious! How long has the process been for you? Does your doctor require a pre diet?

My surgeon placed me with a great Nutritionist, she didn't put me on a diet but more like she helped to add the needed nutrition to my daily meals.

I am scheduled to start the 2 wk. pre-op liquid diet on the 23rd of this month, but that is the only diet required.

I had my consultation on July 5th. After what felt like 100 specialist visits and tests, including nutritionist and personal trainer I have oct date. So my entire process was 3 months.

      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!!
