That's a bummer. I know the feeling. I am going in for some major cosmetic surgery and of all the surgeries I've had, this is the only one that puts me on edge (I think because it's a 8 hr surgery). Anyway, because of circumstance I am going alone and won't see my husband for 2 whole weeks. Stay strong, bring a picture or something that reminds you of him. And remember he'll be home soon :)

Congrats on your decision to become banded

praying for you, try to relax and make sure your not uptight when you go in for surgery, he will be waiting for you when you get home, don't go in stressed, Gods got you covered, you will do great, I do understand you want your hubby but he is going to make that money so he can come home and take care of his queen ( you) :)

Thank God for mothers <3 they will stand by us when all else fails, you have a wonderful hubby and im sure he is just as frustrated as you are, im sure he wants nothing other then to be by his wife side, if he could tell the job I cant make the trip I bet you he would, my husband is a business man we have our own business and sometime I want to cry when he cant be by my side sometimes but I try to understand if he could he would, good luck on your surgery and picture his face before you go in.....you will do great sweetie :)

      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!!
