I’m in NY too!! Not only has everyone banned smoking near EVERYWHERE, but the cigarettes are also outrageously expensive 😂 mine were almost $13 a pack 😫 I’m so glad to be on the other side of it now
Oh my! Where in NY are you? I live upstate near Troy.

Haha wow! Small world indeed! I am going through Samaritan as well, but with Dr. Sanders.

How far along are you in the process? I’m having surgery on the 17th and have completed all my requirements.

How exciting!! I still have a long way to go, just started the process at the beginning of June. All of my appointments are scheduled for next week, except for endoscopy and the sleep study, which are booked out until September 🙄🙄🙄 I’m hoping something opens up before then because I’m super impatient lol

Oh man! The sleep appointment was booked so far out!!! Did you get put on their cancellation list? I did and ended up being able to go in a few weeks earlier.

I’ll send you a PM with my Facebook info if you want to keep in touch or have any questions. 😀 the staff at Samaritan Bariatric are great and you’re in good hands!

I quit 6 years ago. I decided to throw everything at it. So I went on Chantix to help with the physical addiction; Wellbutrin to help with the mental part; for the first couple weeks, I used an e-cig when I really had a craving; gum; mints; not drinking alcohol; etc. 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!!
