Had my first evaluation today. Saw the dietician and the patient advocate. Starting tomorrow I have to journal everything I eat and drink. I have 2 more visits with the dietician and I'll get my surgery date! I'm looking to be banded at the end of January. By the way I have to have a EJD on 11/13 to see how big my hiatal hernia is. (Didn't know I had one) anyway Darling Hubby is with me every step of the way. I can't believe how fast this is going to go!

Congratulations for starting this wonderful journey. The best part, your husband's support!! My husband was/is with me 100% and that really helps.

So happy for you, Starfish -- that is great news. And great you have that support at home. Me, too, though I didn't let him come to any of my appointments as I don't want him to know how fat I am. Isn't that ridiculous? I can't wait to weigh less than him -- that will feel so good!

Lady Diva, I'm going to add you on MFP. I am sabinadublin there........might already have you -- still figuring it all out but great to be tracking exercise and calories with a group of banders. Starfish I don't think I have you there, do I?

Happy Friday every one!

Bandista and LadyDiva I'm on there as MZCHYLL

keep thinking/being positive...its great you got a hub to help you...i know i would not have had it

as well as i have without mine...One of the most rewarding days on your journey will be the day you look back at today and say, “That used to be so hard, now it’s a piece of cake.”
