I know there is a june post op page but it's from 2013 and very hard to go through all of those messages looking for support from people just going through the surgery although we love the veterans and all their wisdom sometimes you just want to talk to your graduating class about how things are going!!! congrats class of 2014 ha ha let's stay in touch here and post questions and answers and support each other im also considering making a Facebook page so let me know if that would be something you would enjoy for the group. this page is for sleevers and bypassers and banders of june 2014

I never thought I would get here. My date is June 17 for Sleeve surgery. I read the May thread faithfully and was sooooo jealous! Now it is our turn to take this awesome step into a new chapter of our lives. So helpful to know there are others out there to discuss our feelings as we go through the recovery steps, including sharing our successes and insecurities along the way. I will be here reading this thread when it changes to June, 2015!!!!! I hope all those scheduled for June surgeries stay with me!

Okie all you Junies.... Anyone who wants to add me as a friend, please feel free. Also, if you want to keep in touch via text or Facebook, send me a private message. I have seen the other post-op forums go quiet pretty quickly. If we want to stay in touch, to share success, share losses, share troubles and anything else...

Not to sound stupid here, but how do you add a friend on this site. I want to keep in touch with my June friends. We will have the same timing of surgery, post op, etc. it would be great to follow each other's progress together.

Hover your pointer over the persons name under their profile pic. a box should pop up that says their info. on the bottom near the left is an icon that looks like a head and shoulder with a little plus sign. click on it. That is the 'add as friend' button.

i agree on the facebook page. it's easier to keep in touch there. it's easier than weeding through the threads here. but i still love it here for other threads and support :)

      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!

        Have a great Wednesday too! Sorry you're hungry all the time, I'm pretty much the same..and I'm sick of eating the same food all the time.

      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!!
