Went shopping today for new work clothes and I NEEEVVEEERRR thought in a million years I would wear a size 4/6... I'm so THANKFUL to God for this opportunity and even though I may fall short at times, I'm going to work HARD to never go back to where I was before.....

Hw: 240

Sw: 232

Gw: 160

Cw: 138

We have similar stats, I am 5’6 and 234. I really would like to level off around 160, so I have a goal weight of 150, and then I want to increase my calories so that I don’t lose anymore. This is the one thing that is making me really nervous about the whole surgery, and even has me second guessing at times. Did you choose to keep losing after you hit your goal weight, or were you unable to stop? Also, did you have any issue with skin? By the way, congrats!!

THANK you... I don't have ALOT of loose skin.. Just a little on my arms, stomach and thighs but it's not extreme... My weight stopped where it wanted too... I just finished a 21 day Daniel Fast eith my church so that took me from 142 to 137.. I think my body is comfortable at 140

        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!!
