jottbaby,

How are you? How did your surgery go? Write when you can. I'll be where you're at in 2 days. OMG.

I really can't imagine it. The only other time I had surgery, I was being operated on for ovarian cancer. It was terrifying - they didn't know how bad the cancer was and/or if I'd survive the surgery. Luckily, I made it through like a champ and they got it all. That was 14 years ago.

Hope you're doing good!

My surgery went well this past Monday. I am home now. Still feel sore but each day it gets better. Once I get past this, I will be on the road to lose weight.

Wow...I don't have a scale...lOL so I don't know what I lost if any....other than 80 % of my stomach.

I did go for a walk today to the end of my street...Might've been a mistake I was weak and gittery afterwards...Although it was like a mile and a half....gotta take it slower!

I am feeling better today. Trying to get my liquids in still. Stepped on the scale (drum roll please). Already down 5 pounds. Gotta get that Protein in so that it's more than Water weight.

      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!!
