Today is my 3 month surgiversary! I ended up in a stall the last week and a half or so, but I have taken it in stride knowing my body is just trying to catch up with a 60 pound weight loss in 3.5 months including the pre-op diet. I was really hoping to get to ONEderland for my 3 month, but I know it is in my near future.

Cool stuff since surgery:

I have been working out a ton, which I couldn’t do before. My fitness level has increased so much since the beginning. It takes a lot more to get my heart rate up, and my recovery is fast.

I weigh less than my husband for the first time in our 11 year relationship. For the record, he is 5-6 inches taller than me and his BMI since I met him has been 23-26.

This one is double edged. I have loaded 3 giant contractor trash bags with clothes that are too big. Unfortunately, this means I have nothing to wear, and I don’t want to buy much this far from my goal. I have gone from a plus size 20-22, to a regular women’s 14-16.

So happy I did this surgery to become healthy! Loving my new life!

        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!!
