Hi Heather!

OMG, I just now saw your message. Surgery on 11/18? That's great. . . I'm really excited for you.

I'm plugging along, lost 7 lbs. and nutritionist is going easy on me - said to just focus on getting through the holiday eating. Gastro showed some esophagus/stomach iritation and an esophogeal ring but said it will probably not prevent surgery. He put me on Prevacid. All that's left is the cardio. He has me scheduled for EKG and non-treadmill cardiac stress test in December. So . . . still shooting for late January, or Feb for surgery if all goes well.

Take care, and all the best for your surgery. You will be in my prayers. Keep in touch.
