Clear and sunny in LA?!!? You scored! (used to live in So Cal from San Diego to Santa Barbara) I will chose to see this as a most excellent omen for the rest of your trip.

Thanks for sharing and may the force be with you.

Best place to go in SD for site seeing to get an amazing view would be crown point. Check it out! Its so pretty. Best beach would be mission beach. Best thing to at night is go downtown to the Gas Lamp district. Its packed with people walking around, shops, resturants, so much fun. Plus all of that is FREE haha

I know it is!!! I had a really slow first week from all the fluids!! But it seems to be picking up... But best part is I am getting the hang of being sleeved, I went out for dinner for the first time and ordered French onion Soup ate the broth and a bit of cheese and was done, not exactly sure how I knew I was done, but I did!! It took me as long to eat the Soup as my family to finish their meals!! It was not so bad!!!

I am going to increase my exercise this week!! I want out of the 200s by my 40 birthday!!!

      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!

        Have a great Wednesday too! Sorry you're hungry all the time, I'm pretty much the same..and I'm sick of eating the same food all the time.

      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!!
