just wanted to say hi and introduce myself! its always nice hearing from people my age (in my 20s) and their experiences and how everything has worked out for them!

i'm about 1 1/2 months out from completing my 12 month supervised coaching program through anthem cova care. I have two of my doctors appts on jan 6 and I hope to talk to my doctor to see when we can get this ball rolling! this has been such a long process, i'm so anxious to just get the surgery over with!

please feel free to add me as a friend, I would love all the support I can get :)

So, you may be banded by February 15thish? Read as much as you can here. I've been hanging around here for years but didn't really pay attention till I got banded 11/28/11. There were some normal issues that came up such as "Bandster Hell, stuck episodes, and not losing till I had several fills. These are issues commented on here every day but for some reason I figured I'd be the lucky one who immediately dropped 50 lbs. HA!

      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!!
