Not totally weight loss related (well, maybe a little).

So, on my first day back to work after my sleeve (Aug 2013), my car was totaled in an accident. I had a short moment of panic when the airbag hit my newly healed tummy, but I was fine & so was the other driver. Phew.

And today, I finally bought a new car-- a car I would've NEVER been comfortable in when I was larger. :)

I think I'm in love... Plus I look totally cute next to it. lol

I opted for the v6- v8 was just too expensive for me.

And it is a fun drive!

And I got the RS, you know, just to look "cool." lol

This was def a bit of an impulse buy... I was actually going to buy a Toyota Camry. LOL.

Thanks y'all! I'm having so much fun with her! lol

& I know I wouldn't have enjoyed it this much preop... Also, I was always dead-set against motorcycles, and now I'm letting (almost begging) the hubby to get a motorcycle,,, NEVER would've even considered riding one before... Strange!

      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!!
