I am from Lexington, so not too far away. I'm seeing Dr. Bauman in Concord. I won't be able to have mine until Nov or after due to completing the 6 months of PCP visits. By the time I get to have mine you all will have mastered life after being sleeved. Hopefully you will have some good pointers for me! ;)

That's awesome you're getting all of that done in one day! It took me over a month to finish up all those appointments! Good luck!

I'm being sleeved by Dr. Bauman on August 13th! I live in Concord, so you'll have to keep me updated on your surgery status, maybe we can meet up when you're in town sometime :)

I live in Rock Hill, SC and work in Charlotte. Having my surgery done by Dr. Voellinger @ Presbyterian Main. Going for H.Pylori and barium swallow (upper GI) tomorrow. That will be the final step, then insurance. Should be ok for surgery date either mid-August or mid-September. I work for Presbyterian/Novant and we are the hospital for the Democratic National Convention, so cannot take off of work the 1st week in September due to that. So if I can't have a surgery date for the 2nd week of August, I will have to wait until the 2nd week in September. Very cool to have so many around me with close surgery dates :)

      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!!
