Unfortunately I will be unable to complete this challenge as I was admitted to the hospital earlier this week with a medical emergency. I was bleeding internally and lost half of my blood supply due to an ectopic pregnancy that I was unaware of that ultimately ruptured my fallopian tube. I'm devastated as this is not the first time this has happened to me and now I am left with no tubes at all and can no longer have anymore children. I am blessed to have my daughter but it looks like she will be my one and only. It hurts because I had wanted to get myself healthy enough to be able to give her a sibling and now those dreams are crushed.

I'm out of this challenge as the IV fluids have caused me to gain a bunch of weight. I know it's not weight from fat and its only Water retention and it will go away. I'm hoping to be able to participate and complete the next challenge.

Oh no! That's traumatic. .I'm so sorry for your loss. My last pregnancy I was told it was possibly ectopic, so for 2 weeks I couldn't do a thing except check my temp every few hours. I managed to hold onto that baby until 32 weeks. She is now a healthy 5 year old starting kindergarten on Tuesday.

While the loss of both tubes can never be diminished, maybe this was part of a bigger plan for you.

Get yourself well honey. There will always be more challenges to join in once your healed up and ready for it!

So sorry to hear about your devastating loss Ree, prayers to you!

I've been substantially hungrier these days...yikes! Glad I didn't gain, but no change from last week.

Ree: I am so sorry for your loss. I hope you have plenty of loving support.

My final check-in for the Labor Day challenge is a head-scratcher: 155 lbs. How does one lose 8 lbs in one week? I must have been retaining Water like crazy. If this isn't a temporary anomaly, I have exceeded my goal for today by 8 lbs!

      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!!
