How are you doing on the liquid diet? I had my surgery with Dr. Eagon the 22nd. You're only 2 days away right? Good luck! I wasn't nervous the day of surgery, I was ready to get to the other side. I don't like the healing process though. It's hard for me to be down physically so I don't think it's actually hit me that I've had the surgery yet because all I can focus on is the pain/incisions.

I went in Thursday to have the surgery. When I woke up in the recovery room, I was told that my surgery took 5 hours! When he went in to do the RNY, everything went well and he was done with that in about 2 hours. Then, he saw a hernia (I knew I had one but every dr before Dr. Eagon would downplay it), and went to repair it. While trying to fix that he noticed my bowels were all tangled up with the hernia so in addition to the lap cuts I have, I also have an open cut on my lower abdomen which makes my recovery a little bit harder. I came home with a drainage tube also so that doesn't make it any better. It still doesn't feel real to me, except the fact that I am not hungry and have to force myself to sip liquids all day because I'm so focused on my physical limitations.

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...
