Recommended Posts

Hi there! I got a date of November 19th! Working on pre op scope and sleep study and the rest of my nutritional meetings. I only have 2 of those left. I live in Pittsburgh PA!

We are date twins!! I'd love to keep in touch. I'm keeping it relatively secret so I don't have a ton of support. I'm in CT.

my date is November 16th. It feels so far away! Very exciting though! :)

Isn't the waiting excruciating?? I've been filling the time slowly bettering my habits- cut out soda, trying to cut sugar (the struggle!), eating slower... Etc. it's a waiting game!

Finally I am finding people who are going through what I am going through! I've cut out soda too which I thought would be really hard. I still drink a lot of diet drinks though, like diet iced tea that is artificially sweetened. I'm trying to lose weight before surgery, but I keep bouncing back and forth in the same 10 pounds. All it takes is one bad day at work or whatever and I'm eating crap I shouldn't be. I'm Also trying to add in more fruits and veggies. Most of them just go to waste in my fridge. Man, I hope I get better at all of this and QUICK, lol!

I'm October 5.

I would already have this behind me, except for the fact that when I went to check in for surgery this past Monday, 8/24, I had quite a bad sore throat and a low-grade fever. The anesthesiologist said no way would he proceed. So I went home.

I am feeling tired, deflated, and using food as a drug again. I spent 2 weeks on liquid Protein and then 2 days on clear. Was literally starving by the end...and so ready for the surgery but...so I'm on the rebound. Don't know how to get my excitement for this and mojo back!

I'm so sorry that happened to you! Of course safety is their #1priority, but I would be bummed too. Hopefully the next month or so goes by very quickly and before you know it, you will have your brand new sleeve. Just keep your eye on the prize! :)

Thanks so much for the encouragement. There must have been a good reason for the cancellation and I'm ok with that now!

Yes it's good to have a support system! Is Dr Neyra in practice with Dr Bonheur?

I have to finish my classes then they will book my surgery date. I could be booked Oct/Nov, but I'd rather miss out on thanksgiving as opposed to Halloween. So Nov it is!

      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!!
