94 days until July. Yippee. I need to meet with my nutritionist and they added an xray for my chest now. That's it as far as I know. Then it's once a month meet with Dr. And whatever they add at the end to prepare you for surgery. I cannot wait to start taking the pounds off!!!!! I am done being this big girl! A few days before my surgery I am making my own broth

flavored with no salt and canning it. I am buying everything I'll need and setting it up ahead of time for my two weeks off. Sf Popsicles. Coconut Water. Plain water. Protein Drinks. Whatever I'm told I can have during those two weeks. I'm asking for a treadmill from my husband so that I can walk no matter what the weather is. Vegas gets up to well over 100 degrees and is so hot! I can't wait till it is time to go for surgery. I have another surgery on April 11th for removal of my gallbladder. No more gallstones and acid reflux for me. Things are moving along but July seems so far off. If they push my surgery into August I'll be so upset! I am going to schedule my Dr visit in July early and hope we can get a date! Or before then if possible.

I don't blame you for getting things ready, I think it will take stress off of you later, smart choice!

        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!!
