Sent too soon. I know I gained over the weekend (food, beer, etc.), it's my TOM and I know my brain couldn't handle the scale today. Emotional hot mess? Ding, ding, ding!

Great job everyone! I promise, I'll be back next week with a vengeance.

We have these days! Don't let it get you down this is our journey. I had to fess up last week with a no loss for the week before.

Oh and my TOM "that sneaky fucked" caught me 4 days ago and I ate outta my plan for a day or 2. seen the scale go up 2 pounds for the first time and about puked on myself. GRRRHHH but no reason to dwell on the slip just time to move on and keep striving for better next time!

Will look forward to hearing your success next week :)

Im checking in, 180.2

I was down to 178.6 when I started and I bounced (or floated on tequila up to 183 after Thanksgiving) just grateful to be ready to break 180 AGAIN! GW 167 I must have been drunk when I joined!! Jk.

Does anyone know how to see the chart when it goes up?

      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!!
