. I'm so sorry you have the delay, but that's just what it is. You'll be way stronger with your iron level up as you go for surgery.

16 lbs in a week?! WOW! I lost 10 my first week. And I've been stuck on that same 10 since Tuesday, I'm getting frustrated. I know 10lbs is great in 11 days, but the scale hasn't moved in 5 days.

Anyhow, congrats!

that almost happened to me, mine was only 6.7 and had to get it to 10.5, I took 2 chewable Flintstone tablets with iron with orange juice and ate a can of beets everyday, day of surgery my iron was 10.7, best wishes to you

We are planning to do measurements tomorrow. I put on a pair of sandals today that would not Velcro around my ankle before surgery! Amazing what losing 16 pounds will do!

Such an amazing feeling. Been clearing out my closet this morning ... feels really good and motivating

        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!!
