82 lbs since pre-op diet. 22 lbs to personal goal.

Love eating far better food choices!, wearing skinny jeans, fitting into medium clothes, wearing pretty styles, how kind people have been, range of motion vastly improved, feeling my bones, walking in public with my head held confident for the first time in years, physically able to walk more or climb a hill on the beach in the sand, having my kids not be ashamed of my weight.

Hoping for my other personal goals to fall into place! :)

You said it all..... Look at how your life has changed for the better.....I love these changes.......Now that the easy part is over around the 6 month mark, weight loss does slow down and this gives you time to recognize the triggers to eating unhealthy foods and to establish better exercise routines.... :) Keep it up... :)

Congratulations!!! How wonderful is that??!!! I have to admit, reading your post actually brought tears to my eyes , especially the part about your kids not being ashamed of your weight! I think my kids are but just don't tell me. My oldest son when he wants a ride somewhere, he always asks my husband instead of me, so I know it's prob because he doesn't want to be seen with me. I won't ask because I'd hate to put him on the spot like that NOR do I want to know the answer. I can't wait till I can make a similar post as you!! Enjoy all your new found joys in life! They are well deserved!

      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!!
