Thanks guys for all the well wishes! One question: A lot of people have noticed at work (I am a teacher so I just came back yesterday 40 lbs lighter hee hee). I haven't told anyone at work. Some are asking how I did it but I don't want to talk about it. I feel like Star Jones- what should I say?

wow to everyone. that is awesome. Gary your numbers are very impressive. look at you go man. you must be very pleased..

i usually tell the truth about what is happening to me because there might be someone out there that has thought about wls and just don't know anyone or anything about the surgery. if i can help or inspire someone to take the leap of courage off of the diet rollercoaster then so be it. i am a very open book person anyway. i guess that comes with working in the medical field. i wouldn't be able to keep this a secret. i hope you guys that are keeping it a secret can and will. you have more will power than me. good luck to all of you sleevers..

      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!!
