I know after my surgery (not wls, another surgery) ice chips were the most delicious thing I ever had! Did you bring chap stick as well? I found that helped me alot and kept my lips from cracking.

Well Pasquini, is it what you thought, better or worse? Are you hurting more than you thought or not as bad? How are the drugs, are the keeping the pain down? I take it they are taking good care of you, hang in there.

Glad you got through your surgery. Continued wishes for success! I have my sleeve date May 31. Anxious, and looking forward to it!! My doctor said I have to walk alot, too. I have to stay 3 nights in the hosp because my surgery is revision surgery that will take a bit longer to recover. Gotta love the pain meds!! Take good care!

Hey folks. I'm sleeved and trying to rest and walk. DR said the surgery went perfect the gas pain? Holy crap! Yeah it is brutal. But I keep walking. They have been great about pain meds and the gas x strips are helping some. So glad I have them! We good night all. Godspeed

      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!!
