Hi All,
Just a short note to say all went well with my barium swallow.  Esophagus is good everything went in and came out fine.  Called doctor and its all good for a fill.  However a few changes at doctors office so still gotta wait for that fill.  Going out of town for a couple of weeks so that interferred with appt she set.  Really wanted to get in Thursday on my bandiversary but looks like that won't happen.  I've waited this long guess I'll be ok. 
Think I'll stop posting for a while until I get my fill and start from scratch.  Hope all of you do well and keep the Kentucky site active.  If not, I'll be back for better or worse.

 With  I will succeed.

I get my barium swallow today.  No food yet.  Will post info later if they tell me.  Unfortunately I may have to wait on my surgeons review and report.  Have a great Friday and try to remember to eat protein first, drink plenty of liquids, chew your food well. Taking your vitamins daily and exercising helps too.

 With  I will succeed.

Hello KY,
Just posting to say, contrary to what u have heard in the past the world is going to end today. Or at least that is what my appetite believed. I ate today like it was my last supper. However if this is not true, I will have to make some changes in my menu hence forth.
Or it could be that I get my barium swallow tomorrow and things look good, I get to have a fill and get some restriction. Maybe I'm excited because I'll be a bandster in more than name only.
Here's what I had for my last supper.

Sorry to say I have gone carb wild again.  My fat count is low, my calorie count is low.  Now the bad news.  My protein count is low and my carb count is high.  If only all calories were created equal my menu would be ok.  No excuse but gotta get my head on straight.

Tuesday I can say was a eating better day.  I took my vitamins and got a few odd jobs around the house done.  Hope you accomplished some of your goals.  
Got my appointment set up for Friday morning to get my barium swallow.  So by the time my 4th bandiversary arrives on the 16th I should know whether I will be among the filled bandsters.  Hope all goes well for you this week.

Yes, I know that my carbs are too high and my protein could be a little more.  Been a slacker on my water too but that too will change.

Just to show u how backsliding can derail your whole day.  My nerves were working early and so I went to my usual fix, candy. Ate the whole box.  I was satisfied and sorry.  Here's what my menu looked like. Had I not given in to my bad habit.  It would have been a great day.
I did take my vitamins.  Tuesday will be better.

I knew something was missing yesterday.  Journaling done, but oops forgot to post it and don't I know why.  Carbs up, protein and calories down.  Did not drink my water or take my vitamins.  Yeah, its rare but guess the DH is right, I'm not perfect.
