Heads up about the next two weeks...

I am preparing to leave the country on Friday (24th) for just a few days. I'm headed from Houston, TX (USA) to Doha, Qatar (next to Saudi Arabia) to present at a conference there. I am so very excited but still have a lot to do to prepare.

I tell you this to let you know that I may be slow to respond for the next weigh-in, but will easily be able to catch up when I return the next week. Just thought I'd let you know to be patient with the postings/responses over this period. We're making some incredible progress and I have no intention of jumping ship. I really don't think I would be working so hard without this challenge to motivate me, hold me accountable, and help me stay on track. Thanks to all for this crazy, fun group and our journey together!

There are still 4 weigh-ins to go, so you are definitely welcome. Just post your weight, and your goal weight, and we'll get you added to the charts. Welcome!

Thank you! Okay I'm in yay!

Current weight 288

Goal weight 280

That's about 2 pounds a week. Definitely doable if I stay on track! Lets go! :D

      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!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
