    One month out today!

    Well it's one month today! I think I'm doing great. Wish I was losing faster but I really had almost a 2 weeks standstill because of protein issues. I've gotten that straight for now and the losing kicked back in. The best thing I have learned so far is protein and water are the key. What...

    All but one test done

    I am anxiously waiting to have my last pre-op test done. The dr's office told me 6 weeks ago they'd call me when I am to have the endoscopy. I haven't gotten a reason for the wait. Is this normal? I have never had one before. Since everything else is done, how long may one wait before having the...
