Hey Melissa are you feeling ok today?? I'm doing ok stayed home because my son was sick, but just got back from the doctor. I will be so glad once next Friday hits, I am having problems getting in enough water and food, at a meal it's about 6 bites then I have to stop. I am going to Tucson over the weekend otherwise I would try and get in with SBC.....I am glad to hear that things are going down better!!!! Erin

Hi Erin, They can usually get you scheduled pretty quickly. Have you checked with them again? It does sound like you suffering the same way the rest of us did. I hated being miserable having my food control my day... you need to control it. I was so fatiqued and weak with the stricture. I have had the procedure done 3 times now, it is really a piece of quiche! Get it fixed! ~Nicole

Hey Guys, well I am scheduled with Randy next week and I will tell him everything....so probably the next week....It just so hard to take off work, they freak when I am not here.....Anyways, I'll survive I weighed myself this morning and I am at 233 so I am down a total of 43 lbs and Friday I am 8 wks post op....trying to be positive I will keep you guys updated.... Erin

Erin i can't believe you are 8 weeks post op already. Seems like you just had your surgery. You are going to be at goal in no time the way you are going. Your new pic looks fantastic!

Your a sweetie thanks for the compliment.....Have a great weekend, I am going to Tucson in the morning...lots to do to get my kids packed!!! Talk to you soon... Erin

When are they going to fix your stricture Erin? Yes I'm feeling great. I had a few bites of broccoli that my mom had made. It tasted sooo good, and went down painlessly. And it didn't come back up! I'm drinking a yoplait yogurt smoothie right now. I wanted to keep eating the broccoli I was so excited to eat without pain and getting sick, I had to stop myself. I feel like a new person, and the past 3 months have been some sort of bad dream. I am amazed how great I feel already.
