I had my 1st 2 of 3 appointments (medical and nutrition next is excersize physiology on Dec 1)

I've gone to 1 of the 2 required monthly meetings.

I'm scheduled in the next 6week course starting November 14

Got my blood work done

And going for upper gi tomorrow.

So if this goes super slow it certainly won't because I don't have my **** together lol.

No, I'm thinking it's probably similar to the crap they make you drink before a abdominal catscan? So friggen nasty lol I'm just hoping I don't gag.

Mine was about a cup of barium. Thick white chalky stuff. Before that was a tiny amount of Alka seltzer stuff. They make you roll around on the table to coat your stomach. It wasn't horrible but glad it's over. I hope they told you the barium goes out the same color it went in LOL. so don't be shocked when you poop!

It was really neat watching my stomach on the screen. Not sure if you were able to see yours, but it was cool.
