Kensington, they were checking me for acid reflux. Which I haven't had in 13 years. Hopefully you won't need it.

Thanks. It makes sense they need the study to map their path during the procedure and rule out other issues. Thank you!

Keep your head up. Never know it could be Water weight gain. Also maybe their scales are different that your wls office too. All 3 of my Drs say I weigh a different amount

My consult day was 5/20, I was 275lbs... today 6/29... I'm 278... I've been eating like a mad cow... because I quit smoking on 5/28. I'm almost too the point where cigarettes don't phase me, but the habit of eating is a habit I don't need. 3lbs isn't bad.

I finally got my date....August 10th. Requested the Insur admin at the office to check with the hospital for possible dates and it was available...Yeah! I really wanted to have is done before my kids went back to school. Now all I have is the last Nutritional visit on July 10th, then submit to insurance for approval. My Endoscopy is scheduled for July 17th.

I had a year program ???? I graduate September 30th. Fingers crossed I'll be sleeved early October.

Do you all get free Protein powder samples? If so, how? Please share where I can sign up for a variety of samples.

I emailed info@bariatricchoice.com and they sent me a link to order free samples.

One step closer... I have my psych eval tomorrow and I'm nervous. Haha, I worry that he'll see a need for more visits. Yikes! Then 3rd Nut visit on the 6th and only 1 left! Aug 31 would be perfect for me. Fingers crossed.

Time is getting closer for all of us. Seems like such a long road. But very very worth it. 6 months seems so long, but saw where someone else on here had to wait a year. I ordered the injury sample pack and Vitamins. Anxious to try. I've not cared for any pre mixes yet, but need more selection for variety.

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL

      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!!
