Sorry! I haven't been on the forum this week. So I started this challenge at 332 and my goal was 318. I got to 319 by June 21 which I was ecstatic about! Then my TOM came. Also, I work with a residential college-prep summer camp for teenagers during the summer. I've been eating terribly the last couple of weeks. Grazing, poor food choices, not enough Water. This week I weighed in at 323 so I didn't make my 4th goal. UGH! This is my first gain since surgery and I'm trying not to freak out. I'm going to try to make better choices this week. Congrats to everyone for a great challenge! On to the Labor Day goal....

I can't find the thread' date=' where is it? Can you have it pinned?[/quote']

I'm trying to have it pinned, but they need the URL for it and I cannot see the URL on my iPad and I can't get to a computer until Tuesday. I did a search though and found the thread with no problem. "Labor Day Challenge 2012". Don't use the quotes, just the words and you should be able to locate it. If you come across the URL, could you send it to me so I can get back to Alex sooner to pin it? Thanks!

BTW, first weigh in for the challenge is tomorrow and every Monday afterward. hope to see you in the challenge!

      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!!
