Well the story is, now must loose 25 pounds, 60gr, protien a day & he is booked up with surgeries until june maybe early july, so the continued "wait" is still a big part of my life, he is going to do an "open w/l surgery & reconstruct my stomach for it's all herniated with hernia's. So will be cut from breastbone down.but i don't have to have 2 surgeons he alone will do all the work, so knowing i'll have my intestines back in place and loose this basketball hernia & w/l all same day. Yes it's alot of surgery & he told me it will be rough but i can handle it. Will make 4th hernia surgery & 1st w/l & the only weight loss surgery i will need.
But i do appreciate each & every one of you listening to me carry on about my long wait, but sometime soon i'll be like everybody else, i'll have my surgery & become the healthier person i want to be. Found protein drink i like from walmart "watermelon flavor liquid, taste great add to unsweeted kool-aide & add diet sugar and sip on it all day.2.50 & add it to 2 quarts kool-aide makes it cheaper and 27 grams protien, i love water so this works for me. Don't care for the whey drinks you mix with milk, but this is a whey product & they had grape & tropical punch too, gonna mix some in sugar free jello too, so anyway i can get the extra protein points i need daily, and i am gonna loose that 25 pounds he said plus work on loosing more before the surgery & increase my exercise too , lost 5 since last week, so happier day's are ahead.
Hope all of you are having a good week and continued success no matter where you are at with your journey. It's definetly a waiting game & trying of "patiences' i must remind myself i didn't get this size over-night so it's up to me to change now and forever one bite at a time. All of you are so kind and i truly appreciate all the help you give me with advice and friendship. I will continue to share as i continue on.

Just like most of us you will begin to feel a rollercoaster ride of emotions including happiness, apprehension, excitement, disbelief and panic just to name a few. In the end it's all good and will be entirely worth it. I know you will see this thing through to the end with the same enthusiasm you have shown in this forum from the beginning. If you ever hit a rough patch just remember that we will all be here for you
