It never fails. Whenever I'm set to be out of the office for an extended amount of time, everybody wants everything all at once! Ugh. Anyway, my pre-op with my surgeon got moved up -- to TOMORROW morning, so there goes meetings I had scheduled for tomorrow. Also tomorrow, getting my tooth capped and cleaned and getting some more blood work done by my kidney specialist. Picking up my sis from the airport on Wednesday and then back to work later, and Thursday. Friday until April, I.am.OFF. I'm too busy to be nervous, but I bet by Sunday, I will be like the rest of you -- can't sleep, rethinking my life decisions, etc....🤪

Trust, it's not as bad as you may think. I'm still hoping for March 17th, but it may be pushed to the 18th. I met with the surgical team this morning and the hospital is trying to get their scheduling together.

It seems so long while going thru the pre-op liquid diet but those last few days really fly by! You got this! I’m one week out and finally feel better and coming out of the fog of pain meds I was on. Thank Goodness.

      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!

        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!!
