Y'all have inspired me. Tomorrow I am getting mani/pedi and waxing the brows! I also need to mail two packages I have. Honestly I am writing it here so I don't forget.

Wednesday I will be finishing up the house-cleaning and laundry. I'm so excited!

Have any of you had dreams, nightmares rather, that you were pigging out with food you can't eat during preop? I've had a few, I wake up panicked!

The dreams are normal. I did a Water fast once for 27 days and had those same dreams. I would have to ask my husband if what I dreamt happened several times. It was crazy.

I didn't have any dreams but my husband has this Cincinnati Skyline Chili for lunch today and it smelled so good. I drank my shake and enjoyed the smell. I sticking to this liquid diet too, no matter how bad it tastes. It's better in a wine glass with ice?

Last night I dreamt I had chocolate with hazelnuts at church in the town we are moving to. I'm not worried about this because the church I have chosen is an hour drive from the town we are moving to, so I know it is impossible. Furthermore, I made a Formula 1 race happen in town, with non-race car drivers driving alongside the race cars. I am chocking it up to nerves.

I woke up at 6:30 and have been finishing my preparations. I am making Jello, frozen pops, and getting the house ready and clean top to bottom. I have finished my packing list (my surgeon requires a three-night hospital stay) and am gathering everything I will need post-surgery.

Here's my packing list:

- Baby Wipes

- Face Cloths

- Lip Balm

- Shampoo

- Soap

- Lotion

- BB Cream

- Wedding Ring

- Flip Flops

- Dress

- binder

- Bra

- Towel

- Toothbrush & Toothpaste

- Electronics And Chargers

- Afghan Or Shawl

- Ear Plugs

- Journal And Pen

- Medical Records

I just got the final call from my surgeons office that everything has been approved. They will call me later with check-in time for tomorrow. I think it has finally set in and I am starting to cry. I am happy and so nervous. I know this is the best thing for me -but now doubt is rushing in.

I have ROCKED my 3 day liquid diet though! So that gives me real hope and strength. I can't wait to talk to you all after we are on the losers bench!

      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.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?
