I was originally scheduled for surgery on 7/15 and due to being 15 pounds off from where he wanted me to be my surgeon rescheduled my surgery. I have a new date for 7/30! Yay! How many pounds did you all lose in the 5-7 day liquid fast before surgery?

My doctor didn't require any weight loss, just no weight gain during 6 month pre-op appointments.

I lost 13 pounds in the pre op diet that lasted 10 days. Other than that, I remained at the same weight for my whole 6 months prior. I did not gain and did not lose.

      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!!
