:( Today my Dr called me to tell me they have to move my surgery AGAIN! It started at Journey lite then to Jewish hospital then back to Journey lite and today they called to say back to Jewish Hospital!!! So now the date is August 2nd and not the first. Seems so easy but it change who is keeping my daughter overnight, my time off work, my registration at the place i thought i was having surgery, the FMLA paperwork ...it's so annoying to have this happen again. I know it's only a day but it's been a pain in paperowrk for me. It had better not happen again!!!

You are not alone. My surgery has been moved from July 18th to Aug. 1 to Aug. 8th. So, I understand how you feel. But you are so close to the finish line...stay strong and you will have your new tummy and life soon.

good luck with everything n i hope they dont change the date anymore, i know how hard all the preparation and paperwork can be because i also have a child and a job, hang in there though u dont know exactly what could have happened had u had it on the initial surgery date, everything happens for a reason. my process for the surgery took a little over a year, i even have up and thought they would never call me and then one day out of the blue i got a call and my surgery was sheduled 2 weeks after that day and they changed the time like 3 times so i was on liquids for 2 days feeling faint weak u name it, anyhow now im almost 70lbs weight loss with 5 months after surgery and im so happy that it worked out!! good luck again.

      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!!
