Crazy NSV I fit better in the seat of my car when I got my car last year I couldn't see the seat I was right up against the middle console n door n was disappointed with downsizing my car I felt how big I was. Yesterday while driving I looked down and saw the seat my thighs did not cover the whole thing the car doesn't feel right anymore. Can't wait to get in a plane in July and see what it is like In that seat last year I barely closed the seatbelt .... To be continued

Good one readyset. I can't wait till you slip into that airplane seat either.

I had a funny nsv last night. I wasn't paying attention and reached for my SF pudding on the coffee table and of course, knocked it over onto the carpet. Boy was I annoyed. I started to clean the carpet while bending over, which is a killer on the back. Suddenly I realized hey, I could get down on the floor and get up again. so I did. Imagine someone smiling while cleaning a stain on the carpet. Well that was me last night. LOL!

Went to dinner tonight with my BFF and she asked me if I had on make-up, I said no. She said what do you have on your face then, I said nothing! She called me a liar!! I had a take a napkin and wipe my face so that she could see there was nothing on my face!! One of my NSV is my skin complexion, especially my face! Thanks to eating healthy, drinking PLENTY of Water and of course my Mary Kay cleanser and moisturizer my skin is looking like I'm wearing foundation when I'm not!

My class went on a field trip to the zoo last Friday and I thought I was gonna walk right out of my jeans! Had to keep pulling them up and folding them down but they were still too loose. Only 33 lbs down so far but I'm loving all the "extras" that come with it!

When I drive Im totally amazed by the amount of seat that I can actually see now!

It's a silly one but makes me feel so tiny in my car!

I can take a bubble bath comfortably now. And there's more Water in the tub because it's not all being displaced! I can get out of the tub without pain. Used to take me several minutes of maneuvering, and lots of grunting and groaning. Love me my bubble baths.

Yesterday, I had to go to Dallas, Texas. I worked at Baylor Hospital for 5 years and have been gone for about that long. I had left there heavy and gained 50 lbs after leaving. I've been to Dallas a few times but refused to stop in and say hello to my old coworkers because I didn't want to show up there 50 lbs heavier than they remembered me. Yesterday, I decided to stop in and see them. I caught 7 or 8 of my old coworkers. The first words out of each of their mouths were, You look great, you've lost weight. Except one......she said "you're taller now". Lol. I don't think so, but I'll take it. To think, I use to duck behind the clothes racks in the stores if I saw somebody I didn't want to confront...not any more. I'm loving this.

well I know I've just lost 20 lbs. so far however I just had a NSV. My neighbor, whom I haven't seen since I started the pre-op diet two weeks ago, just saw me outside and said I looked great and looked like I had lost a little weight. I beamed and said yes, I'm trying to watch what I eat, lol. Just made me feel good so I thought I'd share. happy moment, can't wait for more moments like that :)

      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!!
