FINALLY in ONEderland!



Recommended Posts

Finally after 15 years I am now in ONEderland! I never ever thought I would see a 1 in front of my weight. I will tell those who feel they are struggling that if I can do it ANYONE can do it. I'm not saying it's going to be easy but it's going to be worth it. 2 weeks ago I was crying because I was stalled at 211 and now I'm crying because I finally get to see the number 1 in front of my weight. Those that are "skinny" don't understand what a life-changing event it is and how something so simple as to have a 1 in front of your weight can make you so happy. Good luck to all and for the first time since having the surgery do I feel as though I'm going to succeed!!!

Congratulations, and there's nothing simple at all about reaching ONEderland! Those that have never fought their weight I don't think have any concept of the daily battle most of us fight. You should be so proud of yourself and rightfully so. I know it's hard to wrap our minds around the idea that this is really it and it really will happen. Keep us posted on your progress.

I remember when I hit the ONEderland!!!!!!!!!! It was amazing. I just wanted when I got weighed for them to not push the weights to 200 to start.

I was so looking forward to them not having to use the 150 weights.

Then when I went to the doctors about 2 motnhs ago and I was right there.

GUESS WHAT..........................

They changed to a digital scale, lol.

I told them I was gonna go to every room and find one of those scales, lol.

That day, I had to leave right after my appt. so the next tuime I go to my pcp, I WILL find that scale, lol.

CONGRATS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

      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!!
