Hi Mike let's do this. An accountability partner is just what will get us to our goals. Still interested? What date shall we begin? Online only or calls as well? Let's decide initially on what we need from each other to be specifically accountable for. Diet, exercise, encouragement? My name is Annette

I had dr Heider... I had surgery on the 26th. Still a lot of drainage and some pain at incision sites.

Oh awesome! Did he do a good job? Is there anything I should know? I’m supposed to go to my pre-op meeting tomorrow but no one told me the time. If you know what times they do that, it would be super helpful to me since I can’t get ahold of the office staff.
Did they set up your appointments for the endoscopy and stuff at that meeting? Michelle hasn’t told me anything and I’m do for surgery the 10. I’m a wee bit put out about that and it’s making me reconsider having the surgery so quickly.

Check your email they sent me all my appointments in an email. He did a good job ... I had Lapband removed and a sleeve done so not sure if that’s why I’m having more pain than I remember in past. My drain is still getting a lot too. I go back on Tuesday .

        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!!
