Needing some buddies that I can relate to. I'm 8 years out and live near Louisville KY.

I'm in Louisville! Text me if u want. 502-379-0537. It's Ali I'm so excited I saw ur post. I just had mine done on 3/6. Doing pretty good. I just feel ignorant on what food choices to make besides no sugar and no more than 2 oz.

I'd love to chat!

I M doing better. Got some nectar and it is wonderful. Used the 5 day pouch test. It always gets me back on track. Back down to 150 now. I don't think I would make a good mentor. I traded one set of issues for new ones.

Don't feel bad. Addiction transfer is so common. When I had my band done in 05 I picked up a nasty habit of vodka/ crans bc I couldn't handle the carbonation of the tonic!

Had RNY done 3/6 and I'm scared it might turn into a shopping addiction this time. But I'm gonna try my best to stay ahead of it.

Maybe it's just me but I think 3 cocktails at night at home is no big deal. It's better than a carton of ice cream!

      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!!
