Thanks for that! It's actually what i really needed to hear right now. My surgery isn't scheduled until January, so I'm trying to lose what I can now. I've got to overcome this head hunger thing.... I can do this! I'm a warrior, too!

Thank you so much! It was a little nerve-racking at first but the opinions of others are that of people who don’t truly understand the process. Knowledge is power!! [emoji5]

Congrats on your January date....and the head hunger was the first step of the mental preparation that we will continue to need. Every time I looked at a plate one of my family members had, I just stopped to remind myself that we didn’t get this far for nothing. You got this and I’m happy for you! Sending blessings and prayers in advance!! [emoji2] #WARRIOR

      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!!
