I'm getting sleeved today. I'm getting ready to go to the hospital. I didn't get much sleep and my stomach is in knots because I'm nervous but I am determined and I know I will be OK. I'm singing the happy song all the way to the hospital. LOL I might be singing a different song when I wake up lol but that's OK. Please sent good vibes my way and keep me in your prayers. I will try to update as soon as I can.

Ps...That stuff they give you to take a shower with the night/morning before surgery actually smells pretty good.

Talk to y'all later. :P :D

I did it. I'm sleeved and doing great. No terrible gas pain yet and I want to walk but nurses said later. I didn't like that feeling of coming out of the anesthesia. It took almost two hours to be able to stay up. I have not had to use my pain button yet. Will update more later gonna nap now. Thank u guys

No need for the pain medicine button yet I was sleeved at 730am and it's now 5pm so far so good. But they are not making me walk. Maybe tomorrow? I'm afraid that's when it'll start to hurt. No liquids whatsoever till tomorrow. My mouth is dry but I'm doing fine.

No pain medicine needed yet. But I'm confused they are not making me walk and I thought they would give u liquids the 1st day but apparently it's not till the 2nd day. I'm feeling good but I'm dying to drink something to see how it feels.and I want to walk to see if it hurts.

      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!!
