Portesouth NH - Finally got my approval and my Surgery date is 10/22. SO LONG TO WAIT!!!!! ( but then...so long to weight! ) I am dying here...however, this whole experience has been a good lesson in patience, I hae always ben a NOW person...and this has shown me that I cannot control everything( yes I am a control freak too) and that good things will happen when you do what needs to be done.

I am on My Fitess Pal.

good luck! this chat is a little awkward for me but I hope to catch on -one minute I may be here and the next I may unknowingly sign out :-/ I am really looking forward to getting this over with but not looking forward to the 10 day liquid diet! but that's ok cause it is going for a good cause-glad to see that other people feel like I do ; tried so many times to lose weight that I don't really trust it-do you you know if it is harder to maintain the loss after the fact?

My liquid diet is 15 days. I can eat naked salad greens during that time. I'm just anious to get there.

October 7 seems far away but I know it's really not. I hope we all have smooth sailing through this.

      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!!
