Thanks everyone! I work hard in the gym. I do more weight training than cardio and it's nice to see results from all that work!

Hey there @@AutumnPunkin! The pink part that runs along my calf is part of my compression leggings. However, if you're talking about the band below my knee, that is a knee strap for "jumpers knee" (it supports an inflamed tendon).

I have a girlfriend that came to visit and she is into yoga. When she came with me to the gym and followed my workout, she also joined me with a closing 20 minute session of abs. She then told me that if I really wanted to put my core to the test, that I should practice doing the yoga head stand (I do not remember the name of the pose). Of course, I could not do it without the supporting wall, but the fact that I could do it (even with the wall support) just amazed me because not even in my youth did I accomplish such a feat. YOU CAN and YOU WILL DO IT! Keep it up AutumnPunkin!!!

      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!!
