Anyone in Delaware have left over Optifast to sell? I can't get my supply until Monday and I was told I may have to reschedule my surgery on the 14th if I don't have it for the weekend.

I'm getting started on my 6 month pre-authorization, and I've been seeing Dr. Halbert at CHRIAS. Has anyone worked with her? I was assigned her as my surgeon when I went to the seminar at Christiana.

Hi Jerseygirl0519.

Close enough lol. So you are preparing for surgery in March..Congrats on your decision. I had my sleeve in Aug. 15, I will be 5 months on the 21th. It has been life changing. I am sure you are excited and scared, I had so many mixed emotions. I am short also, so, my weight really pulled me down. At first, I lost 35lbs. Now it kind of slow but steady. As long as do what your surgeon and dietitian says, it is really amazing how the weight falls off. I messed up during the holidays and gained 4lbs. So, I had to go back to Protein shakes and lot of Protein (eggs most of the time). Back on track. Wishing you luck..Please let me know how you are doing.

Blessings from Delaware..

I'm excited and nervous. Starting to have those feelings like I may never be able to have certain things again.. like beer! But I know it's something I need and want.

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
