Hi All!

Well, last week when I started my liquid diet, I weighed 237.5. This morning I weighed and it was 225.4! That is 12 lbs!!!!! Less than I wanted,but, I'll take it. It is starting to get easier, and now I am looking forward to getting it done with finally so I can get on with my new life !!! I have only had a singe bite here and there of lean Protein, no fat whatsoever. And the last 2 days not even that. So, Life is good! Wish me luck for the 16th! I am the first one and will go in at 7:30 and hopefully it goes well! Thanks to all of you for the encouragement and answers to questions I hadn't even thought of! I love you all and wish everyone the best!

I did not start out so well, but the thought of being closed up because my liver was too large scared the **** out of me and I kicked it in gear. I don't want to get to that point and have the doc say oh well, sorry, no can do! I will pray for you and hope for the best outcome for you too! I am more than ready to start this journey and get on with the rest of my life!

Sleeve sisters! I will try to post the day of surgery if I am awake enough! LOL!

Best of luck to you too! Go girl!

      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!!
