I hear you on the nervously eating thing. I still need to take final exams prior to my surgery date and combined they both make me nervous and distracted - can't wait to get this done and move forward.

We are both surgery twins, the same age and finals twins! I have to shove finals week the prior weekend myself. I think I'll warn my husband to go and hide....

Awesome Clexie, glad to have the company - what are you studying? I am working on a Master's of Science - Physician Assistant. Just want this semester done so I can spend a few weeks working on myself and move forward.

And my husband is hiding already, I think.

Can't believe how close we all are, December will be here before we know it. Nervous for my last appointment, I've gained weight since my first meeting with the surgeon, but there isn't a weight loss goal before surgery. I've been nervous eating since my date was established, working really hard on channeling that through something else!

I don't have a weight loss goal before surgery either. The 14 day pre-op is to make sure you've reduced the glycogen in your liver so that it is as small as possible because it sits above the stomach. At least that is how the doctor explained to me.

In additon, I was told to make sure I am careful with my weight not for the surgery but because of my BMI. Since my BMI was under 50, but only by 2 points, gaining weight will put me at 50 or above and that would require I have the pulmonary tests and that could set my surgery back a month or two, until I under went those tests. . Not sure if anyone else falls in this same category, but becareful, just in case.

      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!!
