"Humans are the fattest species on record at birth. A baby human is born with about 15 percent body fat—a higher percentage than any other species in the world. Only a small number of other mammals make it into the double digits at birth: about 11 percent for guinea pigs and around 10 percent for harp seals, for example. Even our nearest primate relatives are not born as fat as we are."

Well if you're referring to that stinky profile, it's almost all wrong. AND my true facts Starting to seek August 15th 2015, that's when I first met Surgeon #1, the back- stabbing fool that let me go through his program not,once but,twice and then refused me surgery. The second time I returned to HIM , I count as my,Highest weight of 355. Leeft him after he repudiated me and my,efforts,in February 2018, cried, raged and signed into right facility's program March 9th 2018, had my presurgical exam with Dr Needleman 7/17/2018 at 334, went on all-August livershrinking diet, surgery 9/05/2018 at 319, am losing 3-5 pounds weekly, most of time, never stalled because of stricture running my recovery, yesterday morning, after converting back from metric 278.9 pounds. Any,other surgery dates are so erroneous it stinks. Why do I not repair them? Because,i am working off of Android Marshmallow app not computer, every change slides away like eggs on teflon, the profile returns nothing. FYI I have had 2 post- surgery endoscopies and facing another, 10/1218,10/26/18 and 11/09/18. and nothing has worked yet, after 3 failed attempts do they do "open" or am I doing this in perpetuity every 2 weeks? Je Ne Sais, French for IT,Iand of course they are all EGJ because a Bypassers. duodenum no longer visible, only Jejunem. That is a certanity!

      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!!
