I hadn't actually weighed myself today because I was so busy. . .

I just hit the scale and almost fell off it when I saw. . . 199! ! ! I am so elated that I had to share with someone. . .

For those just starting this journey, don't give up, keep the faith, and know that success is within your reach! ! !

I have a projected date, and it's still end of September. Due to OPSEC, I'm not allowed to discuss specific dates, troop movements, and other sensitive information.

Once he's out of that area, I am allowed to post that he's on his way, or when he gets to American soil, I'm allowed to talk about him being back safely.

I still do not have a specific date. It's a ballpark, and I have to wait until he's out of that area before I'll know anything.

Tiff, the waiting and not knowing for sure when he is coming home would drive me insane. I don't know how you guys do it. I have so much respect for you.

It's beyond frustrating. Plus, I'm a planner, and have learned you can't plan anything when it comes to the military. It never fails that if we plan something the military will screw it up. So, it's a lot of hurry up and wait. I want to know an exact date, but most likely it will change, or he'll get held over somewhere, and then the disappointment sets in. I've kind of learned to just "roll with the punches", but I still get frustrated with the system.

Thanks Susan. . .

      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!!
