I have lost about 20 pounds. My surgeon will cancel surgery if you gain weight before hand. So I set a goal for myself to be under 300 on the day of my surgery. I only have a few pounds to go and my surgery isn't for another 33 days. I think I am doing pretty good.

My surgery is scheduled for June 3. I start the liquid diet tomorrow. I'm trying not to obsess about the liquid diet or the surgery, but instead trying to focus on the new life that awaits me. I told my office friends I may be a little cranky next week if I'm struggling with the hunger. Good luck to everyone having surgery soon!

Well, I just stepped on the scale for the first time in two weeks and I'm down seven pounds, despite the food funerals I've been having in anticipation of my all liquid diet starting this Thursday. I'm jumping for joy because I had gained 15 pounds in a month after a medication switch. I was worried they might cancel my surgery. Sooooo- YAY!! Lol.

To drummergirl- I have to do a 2 wk liquid diet my dr wants me to lose at least 10lbs before surgery. I have a band right now they took all my Fluid out Monday and its amazing what I can eat right now. I will start liquids exactly 2 wks before no sooner lol. I have my pre-op class on the 29th. When do you start liquids?

TLawre2- I start liquids in two days, I am nervous about it but hope that I will do it without messing up! I have read how hard it is to do...but I will do the best that I can. I still haven't gotten my insurance approval, I am afraid I will do all this and then get denied. Oh well I will just do the diet and hope for the best. I bet you are excited for the pre-op class!!

      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!

      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!!
