Ahhh!!! I can't believe it's almost here! Tommorow!! I'm so nervous. Doesn't help I just kissed my 3 year old bye bye for the next 2 days. I've never been away from him and he was very sad :(... But everyone is in my thoughts and prayers! Keep us updated if you can. We got this! It's almost time for our lives to change for the best! :)

What??? I am fine. Ashley called me Thursday from Dr. Juarez's office and delayed my surgery until Mar. 18th! She said Dr. Juarez was cancelling all of his surgeries this week. Sending prayers and good thoughts your way. I'm sorry I won't get to meet you tomorrow.

Dont mean to snoop but it seems that you should definitely call tommorow and ask why your surgery was canceled....the real reason! And if they say" because he will be gone "you say but my friends surgery is now at that exact same time with the same doc.

I called. They said they moved me back because i had a more complicated case, and he was leaving on Vacation on March 6th. He wanted to be available if I had any complications. I don't know whether they were telling the truth or not, but what can I do. I am ready for the surgery next week. @@StephanieM, I am glad you had your surgery, and I hope you are doing well.

      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!!
