Made it thru Eater dinner!!



Recommended Posts

I'm on day 4 of liquid preop diet. Mom's Easter dinner smelled divine but I held firm. I want that liver in tip top shape for Thursday, so no ham today. Thankfully it wasn't Thanksgiving or Christmas! Lol Sitting in church before it began I was just thinking how differently I will look and feel next Easter...not to mention Thanksgiving and Christmas. :-) My parents are so excited for me, so that's good news. My sister, who has the band, is both excited and a little jealous of the sleeve.

So...I guess I made it thru my first mini-challenge! Yay!!

SpiceyMom-

Thank you so much for that typo. I had my first all-out, horrible eating day and seeing Eater dinner while I was beating myself up made it seem hilarious for some reason. Thanks for that!

And, a big congratualions on making it through the meal! I didn't have to do liquids before surgery, but I am sure that was a monstrous feat. In hindsight, I think a liquid diet pre-op would have been great preparation for surgery, I actually think I missed a great opportunity. Maybe this opinion from the "other side" of surgery will make your shake taste just a little bit better tomorrow. :)

      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!!
