Congratulations!

Try to get up and walk as much as you are comfortable with. Sip Water. Try warm ... cold ... find what works.

Good luck and post your progress.

I don't think any of us can stress enough how important it is for you to walk and sip, walk and sip, walk and sip. It seems so simple that you're probably thinking "No Problem" but it is actually tougher than you think. Oh but it is worth it. I hope you have a speedy recovery. Keep us posted.

I just arrived home, feels great to be laying on my own couch... over all things are not too bad i can get and walk on my own, roll from side to side in bed, and pretty much do a full sit-up to get up. still in a little pain, but right now its the spasms and gas that suck... i'm afraid to put anything in, although fluids are working ok... slow, but ok.

      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!!
