Today's weight: 178lbs
Total lost: 89lbs

18 lbs to go!!!!
-Working out at home 2-3 times a week with the program the physiotherapist made for me and it is going very well
-Slow and steady weight loss
-Still using PatchMD vitamins instead of regular pill format vitamin for my Multi and Vitamin D/Calcium.
-Water consumption has gone down to about 30oz a day....need to work hard on this!!!
-Still freezing, but not as much!!! Got an electric blanket and I heat up my sheets before I go to bed....love it!!! My body is adjusting I guess.
-Cleaned my closet again....
-My wide calf boots are way too big now and regular sized boot don't quite fit yet (some do and some don't)...
-My portion size has stayed consistent
Still no regrets! So grateful for this surgery, truly is life-changing

That's awesome! I am having my scope done on Monday. I am terrified that he will tell me I have a hiatial hernia which means he wont preform the surgery. I should be right behind you sometime in Jan/Feb for the surgery :)

That was really quick. I have not been given any information about pre op tests yet. Not sure if I will get that info at the all day session. It seems like each doctor has a different way of doing things and the wait times are so different.
Got my call today for my all day session! December 19th. Just have to wait for my pre op tests, how were they? I need blood work, ECG, and a lung function test.
