Wow! You look great @@Avhick! You must feel fantastic!

I'm doing great! Man, those first six to seven weeks were tough! I feel like I'm cruising now! Eating regular food - just much less of it. Still no Pasta or rice. I might try those once I'm closer to my goal. I've lost 32 pounds so far. I feel a million times better! I'm bringing sexy back! Haha!

28 more pounds until my goal weight. It will take time and hard work - and I'm going to make it happen!

I still have quite a ways to go, but so far the opposite is happening. My stretch marks are fading away. I thought even once you were thinner they would stay, but mine are almost invisible now.

        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!!
