Hey everyone my surgery is dine. It was tough. They found a hiatal hernia when they went in and repaired it. Was under fir about 3 hours. Woke up with no pain meds that sucked. Nobody could find the order. But once i got them its been ok. Lots of gas pain right at the bottom of my breat bone. The WORST part is here they make u stay overnight and nothing by mouth until they get an xray tkmorrow. Jo Water no ice chips nothing. My throat is so dry it hurts! But tomorrow will b better and on the road to recovery :) good luck everyone!

Well, tomorrow is my day! I have to be at the hospital at 6 am. They said I am the first surgery, which I guess is good. I am nervous but I know I'll be fine. Can't wait to be on the other side of this! Good luck to everyone who's having surgery this month!

I am starting week 3 of the diet. Honestly, it hasn't been easy. I have cravings for things that I didn't used to eat much of, like Peanut Butter and I am dying for a piece of toast. When the cravings hit, I try to wash them away with Crystal Light lemonade. Try to stay strong.

Down 13 pounds on pre-op! Less than 2 weeks to go!

The Protein Shakes from the doc are pretty good, but a bit on the thick side.

I had to attend a pre-op class yesterday and they talked all about preventing blood clots.

Did anyone else got this? :huh:

PB seems to be a common craving. Which is your date? Mine is the 17th.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!
