@@Mikee57 you are always on here offering kind words and advice to all of us. Girl you may stumble from time to time but you just get back up ,dust yourself off and go kick some butt!!!!! You do have a lot to be proud of and the numbers on the scale are such a very very small part of our whole picture. Our health , mobility, and overall happiness can't be weighed on your scale. You are gonna do this because CG showed you all about "want power" and I know you want it. Just know you are not alone in these setbacks it happens to all of us. But if we take a step back and reflect on how many things have truly improved or changed for the better it's all worth it!!! Stay strong you got this and you are my hero!!!

Hey everyone! So, I've had a set back. My kidneys are NOT cooperating and to top it off I have something new (bad new) going on with my back. MRI is scheduled for the 24th. I'm not a happy panda. :*( I'm doing good to walk most days lately. Anyway, on a positive note, my daughter had her baby on the 16th at 2:35 am. 8lbs. 2oz. 19 inches long. Sweetest thing I've ever laid my eyes on. I even got to cut the cord! Keep me in your thoughts. Dialysis makes me deathly ill and I'm much too young to have the back I've got. I wanna RUN!! But reading everyone's posts on this thread keeps me motivated to get there. You all are Killing It!! Happy Hump Day!!

Feel better soon!

I am regrouping right now...was using my scales to register lose and have changed that up what the Bariatric Clinic shows. So although mine was less, I want to be true to myself. I am going to the pool for exercise and staying on track with my eating habits, but learned a lot the other day. I thought I was at 4 cc's for weeks now...learned though I only had 3.5 cc's in me until 6/17/14. I learned also that I am doing all the right stuff I just need to be patient and stopped being so impatient...thanks everyone for listening to my rants...I'm straight now and ready to move forward with my WL journey!!! Yall are my heroes!!!

      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!!
