I'm in Anchorage & would appreciate local support/community. I had surgery 3.5 years ago & never lost more than 35 lbs. I'm determined to follow the plan & reach goal weight. Recommitted this week & have been walking daily. Diet needs help! Where are you guys on your journey?

Hi, I️ had my sleeve done on Oct. 11th, 2017. I live in Anchorage.I used to live in Eagle River. I still have not quite figured out how to use this app well. I️ think most of the posts when I query Alaska are old posts.

Are you getting excited yet?

I am getting excited and nervous. Difficult to explain. I did find one other gal that lived in anchorage but was planning on living before the holidays. How has your recovery been? Where did you have your surgery done?

My recovery has been easy. Almost too easy. Part of me wants this harder so it is easier to make better decisions. So if I eat a bad choice I feel sick. But I feel good, so that means I have to work harder on not making bad food choices. I had my surgery at Providence by Dr. Searles.

      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!!
