Nope. The psych has been out on maternity leave so I haven't had that eval yet. I've done everything else so I should have the surgery by November. You?

Congrats tsdor, as ashmartin says there is alot to do before they do surgery. Who is doing your surgery? I myself am just starting the journey, and as of right now probably looking at April or may for my surgery. Good luck

Dr Eichhorn with GHS. I have in 8 support classes already, saw Dietitian and Psychiatrist and already had EGD. It is going a lot faster for me than some because I am self pay, no insurance hoops to jump through. It seems insurance is the hold up for many people doing this. I am nervous about the month long Optifast diet.

      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!!
