It's looking like late December or early January for me. More likely it will be early January given my work schedule. I've only got two more weigh ins left with my PCP. I've already met with my doctor's NUT and "passed" the psych evaluation. My doctor doesn't even require a pre-op diet liquid diet. Here's hoping the time flies quickly because I'm so ready!

Good luck with time flying... I have my pre op class on Nov13 at that point I will have completed everything and that's all o have left to do other than the pre op for surgery with the surgeon. I'm so ready and time is just dragging by. ????

I'm penciled in for surgery dec 18! I've already started my preop diet! In a competition with myself to see how much I can lose on my own. Was 291 @ 1st nutrition visit. Next one is November 13, I hope to be 280 then. I went from 3,000 + calories a day to 1600. I will then start 1200 for 2 weeks, then 1,000 for one week & then 800 before 3day liquid diet prior! I'm so freakin excited????????????

That is great, I'm hoping for Dec 2nd surgery in just waiting... Waiting is so hard. I go thru days I'm completely on track and then I eat like I'm never going to again. It's hard I know that I need to change my habits and that is the hardest part ever... You sound like your doing amazing. My first weigh it was 240 in August and I'm now 237.. Woo hoo :( this weekend we shopped to eat healthy all week and made a meal plan for the whole week. Fingers are crossed for a completely positive week.

      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!!
