It's been great. I don't have any complaints really. The first 3 weeks post op were the worst but now I feel 100% normal. I can only eat a few bites of food and I'm full. I can eat whatever I want but to tell you the truth I don't get cravings for bad foods anymore. I got back to the gym and try to go 3 times a week. Hope the weight continues to come off just as quickly!

Thanks so much guys! I hope illness down 75 lbs by month 4! The first 3 weeks were difficult for me because I was still very hungry. My body wasn't adjusted to everything yet. I also wasn't used to the portion sizes id be eating. I went out a couple times and my brain said I wanted more but my stomach and body said no. So it was awkward trying to get my brain and stomach on same page. Didn't take long though! Now just after a few bites I'm full and satisfied!

      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!!
