Put ice and the shake into a blinder and turn it into a "shake" I find adding something to make it really cold helps.

Super nervous. Endoscopy this Friday. I've done all of the pre op must do's and my insurance has approved surgery.. everything is going great. I have lost 50 pounds since starting this journey in June. I am nervous and don't know what to expect from a endoscopy.. those who've had it already care to share? My start weight was 321, I'm 274 now, I have 4 pounds to loose before November 14th which is the appointment to read results from endoscopy and blood work and HOPEFULLY I'll get a surgery date before the end of the year!! all of my out of pocket and co pays have been met for the year and I called my insurance and they said if it's done before Jan 1 that insurance will pay 100% everything!! so cross your fingers and toes for me. Excited to be here to read others going through the same journey as me.

I will be sedated, I do know that. They said they are putting me "fully asleep." I'm just a nervous person

Woo hoo! Thats fabulous news

Woo hoo!

Well thats a relief. Though I am a terrible stick. Its hard to get iv's in me. When they did my colonoscopy they poked me 9 times.. Thats usually the number it takes ????
