My day is tomorrow!



Recommended Posts

I'm so excited!!!!!! Tomorrow is the day for my life to begin again!!! I have already lost 20 lbs as of this morning from the pre-op diet and liquid diet. It is amazing how much a difference 20 lbs makes. My clothes fit better. It's easier to walk and I even played BASKETBALL with the kids last night! :D Glad I can still shoot baskets like I did in high school.

Anyway I go in at 8:30 in the morning and should but won't have surgery until after lunch because I'm 4th on the list for surgery that day.

CAN"T WAIT TO BE A LOSER!!!lol ;)

Wish me luck and please keep me in your thoughts and prayers. THANKS EVERYONE!

It does feel like it will never get here doesnt it? I remember that so vividly. Congratulations on losing the 20 pounds, you already have your body in losing mode and I think it helps mentally to go in feeling like you are already a winner! You are going to have great results. Try to stay positive and take a lot of deep breaths. I hope you have a smooth and peaceful recovery. Keep things posted. xoxo

      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!!
