Plan to Rock my sleeve before I'm 50. Yaay!

I'm 46 and will be a few days shy of eating regular food again when my hubby and I hit our 30th wedding anniversary this valentines day. No reservations at a nice restaurant this year, but we are both too excited by my journey to care. I'm so looking forward to the new me emerging over the coming year and all the things we can do together. Loving life right now.

I am 43 yrs old, and was sleeved on Oct. 3, 2012. I am 5'5 and began my journey at 257 pounds. I am currently 188 pounds and loving it. In addition to steady weight loss, I am no longer taking meds for high blood pressure (yaay!!!). I live in Houston, Tx (West Houston), and would love to have a sleeve buddy in the area for support.

      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!!
