Can I add something to this request. I always sign my name to my posts -- although it is in my username so I'm sure people could figure it out. I think it is much more friendly and personal. Most people here never use their name which I find awkward when responding to someone -- I'd like to be able to address the person or say hello to the person, especially considering that posts are often quite personal in nature. I've been here for 6 months and have seen many people I feel like I know but I have no idea what their names are. Am I the only one who feels this way? Maybe some people want to remain completely anonymous? Anyway, just a suggestion.

I wouldn't mind posting before & current pics to my profile, but at this time it is not possible to do so from a mobile device. I know Alex & his team are in the process of writing custom apps for the forums rather than using the canned ones that we use now. Maybe the custom apps will enable full site usage from mobile devices.

      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!!
