I was just about to unsubscribe from the emails, but saw that there is a local group coming to my neck of the woods. (Insert shock face here.) I had my surgery 6 years ago and really got down to a good weight. When I moved here 3 years ago I had an issue and ended up getting all my Fluid out. Partly my fault since I felt I had managed so well. My weight has inched back up. :-( I went to a doctor recently for fills, saw him for 4 months and got two of the tiniest fills ever before he closed up his practice and sent me a bill. It was such a waste not to mention discouraging. Now I'm over it though and am seriously considering going to another doctor and would love to see who in the area is recommended and join your group.

Would love to attend the group as well. I had my sleeve a little over 2 years ago, lost about 120lbs. and was doing great til a took a new and stressful job about a year ago and put on 30lbs. I have taken off about 23lbs of that now and still working at it but could use the support. Look forward to seeing all of you.

I am putting it on my calendar. My oldest son leaves for a year of studying abroad on the 18th, and this will be a great distraction. :)

I am one year post op this month! Excited to go to the doctor on Monday. I don't feel like I have lost as much as some others, but I try really hard not to compare myself.

      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!!
