How long did it take to get a date after you were approved by your insurance?

I'm going to JFK....

How are you feeling? How was your overall experience?

How are you doing?

Im good :) 25 pounds down and i feel more beautiful everyday. I can do almost everything except for picking things up off the floor and sleep on my sides. I got tons of yummy fishes from wegmans and i eat 4 oz servings most of the time. I deff need to try to get more Protein. I suggest looking up Unjury protein you haveto order it but the vanilla in skim plus is AMAZING its like vanilla nesquick and their protein chicken Soup is great for when you cant take down solids but you cant stand the sweet anymore (i like salty over sweet)

Did you get your date yet?

        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!!

      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!!
