It's starting to hit me and I'm freaking out.

I hate the unknown.

The thought of being put under and cut open. [emoji20]

Any encouragement will be super appreciated.

you will do great. Think about the new you. I had it done 5 months ago down 65 pounds. I am so thankful I had it done, wish I would have done it sooner. It is not an easy road, but a road worth traveling. Best of Luck.

You'll be fine! It can be a crappy feeling when you wake up but it does get better, so don't get discouraged. I'm sure you're in good hands. Follow your doc & nurses advice and you'll be back to normal before you know it. Good luck!

      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!!
