Hi Gemma, Great news, glad to hear you finally had a successful op. It took me about 3 or 4 days before I felt I could sip ok. My op was on 3/12 so 23 days ago. I sip just fine now, in fact after 22 days of practice I think I am an expert sipper LOL. So what day was your op? Want to know how many days post op you are. Just an FYI since your from UK but back in the 90's I was stationed at Edzell AF Base in Scottland so spent some time on your island :) Wishing you a speedy recovery!

This is day 4 for me, op was on Tuesday 1 st April. Lol well I hope to turn into an expert sipper. So you were in the army? That's pretty impressive. Where are you living know? How are you finding eating now your 22 days into this new way of eating? Although I'm in pain and finding even sipping liquids a challenge I'm defiantly experiencing feeling a bit down and questioning if I made the right choice. It doesn't help I've put on a few pounds in hospital which can only be from all the liquids they pump in you. Hopefully I'll feel happier once I start seeing results. Did you feel the same?

      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!!
