Well just got back from my appointment and who is down 12lbs? This chick right here and I feel awesome about that I know it is cause I'm basically eating nothing and don't get me wrong I'm STARVING but hey I just know that if I go into surgery with a lower body weight that it means I have less to lose and I think that is something great!

This pre op is so hard!! So proud of your loss!!! Thanks for keeping us all motivated to keep pushing!

I had my last appointment today that my insurance required me to do, my coordinator will submit my paperwork in the morning, we are also aiming for a January date. Say a little prayer for me, hoping this process goes through quick. ????

Ooo fingers crossed to all you gals and guys out there waiting for your date. As much as we all want our dates to be closer just consider this time to adopt some healthy eating habits and get right of some bad ones! Rooting for everyone and If anyone is interested I just spent the day sipping on some different broths and Soups and found some great ones like mexican tortilla Soup, chinese hot and sour and thai chicken. All have a nice kick and changes it up from the shakes. Those are all made from Swanson and if you go to traders joes I found that their Miso soup is great there! kinda pricey though!

Wow you only weigh 172 and are going with gastric sleeve? If I can ask why not do the lap band?

Mine is on jan 5th.

My emotions are all over the place, i am so nervous and excited.

How many calories are your preop diet? My doc gave me 1000 calories which i feel is too high.

      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!

        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!!
