You look absolutely amazing, definitely an inspiration. I have one question. I have a couple tattoos and I was wondering how yours are doing? Have they changed at all with your transformation?

Thank you! I had the sleeve done [emoji4]



That's what I was going to ask. I'm having it done in June, but the fear keeps getting to me. Mostly a fear of possible complications. But seeing successes like yours helps.

I KNOW I will do ok after, I just worry so much. I am so ready to make the changes and I'm so sick of the aches and pains. I am up to 275. Im hoping to lose at least 120-140lbs.

      I hope everyone is having a lovely week so far! 
      It's been a bit of a struggle this last week...I'm hungry ALL the time.

        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!!
