Great job!  Keep pushing tha****er and you will get there soon.  As far as the hernia...ouch! I know how those are. My surgeon didn't want to try and fix mine either because he said the same thing about doing when I had plastic surgery, but I told him I really wanted him to try anyway because I would have episodes of extreme pain.  Glad he did and so far it is holding.  Let's hope that as you lose some weight it will get better.

Thanks!!   I sometimes wish he repaired mine also because I am concerned this is going to be an ongoing issue and it is going to be a long time before I can have any skin remooved.   Hoping that the hernia does not cause further issues before my time.

Thanks Jeff.   I don't think it matters much. The difference in bougie sizes are very minimal.  For me it's more the idea of not being able to chug down 8 oz in a minute  and having to take and hour instead and the fact that everythig tastes too sweet to me and water doesn't taste all that great either.  Oh well......some things you just have to do!
