I leave tomorrow morning at 640am to fly to Puerto Vallarta. Surgery is on the 12th. I've been on Clear Liquids since yesterday morning. Super hungry and of course I have a headache, but I'm starting to get really excited. I'm a worrier so I'm convinced I'm going to have complications with my revision, but hoping for the best. I hope everyone else is doing well!!

Best of luck with your surgery. I'm a revision too, and had my surgery yesterday. You'll do fine, I'm surprised how well I'm doing. I think the band surgery was a lot worse.

December 18th in the house!!! Only required two do Clear Liquids pre surgery with an option to do more days. I may do 7 or 10. Scared out my mind!!!! Hoping to inspire my overweight hubby to do it too, but he is NOT amused!

Hey Tammy I am 12/18 too! If u don't mind I would like to keep in touch to see how you are doing

Its 2am. I'm scared and my stomach is a wreck just from the anxiety. I go in Tuesday at 6 am. Just afraid something will go wrong and my baby boys won't have their Mommy. I'm low risk, no health problems besides the weight. Still no rational discussion with myself seems to put me at ease. Especially when I look at their little faces. Feeling alone.

I feel the same way. I have three small kids, and my mind races sometimes with anxiety & worry. What it comes down to is that we never know when it's our time to go, but while we're here, we should do everything we can to make "our time to go" as far into the future as possible. Statistically, this surgery should increase your lifespan. Take comfort in that, and know that you're doing this for your childrens' future, and yours.

      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!!
