How are you? Hope your surgery went well and you are on the mend! Got mine today and I'm so happy! Little discomfort but worth it!

I am getting sleeved in Mexico with dr Jesus Lopez on August 19th. Have to say a little nervous.

I just had mine done with Dr Ortiz today. So far so good recovering way faster than I anticipated! Don't worry it's the best decision you have made. Are they having you do the pre op diet?

congrats! How are you? I know it gets tough but drink your shakes when you feel like you are going to slip, it's amazing how head hunger fools you. Keep us posted!

Hi All today is the day I go home, I was supposed to go home tomorrow but I live in San Diego and I feel so much better today not as much discomfort and ready to go see my furbabies and drink some of the homemade Soups I made before I left and order Inspire Pure shake powders, down 4lbs since Tuesday! Yay! So glad I did this! Keep us posted on your journey, bring a pillow to hold your stomach when you cough, bring gas x, and bring some G2 sugar free or Powerade sugar free to help with electrolytes.

I am so happy that you had a great outcome. I have 5 days now until surgery. Thanks for the tips I will bring all the items you recommended. What about a compression tank top to hold my stomach in? Do you think that would be better than a pillow?

      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!

        Have a great Wednesday too! Sorry you're hungry all the time, I'm pretty much the same..and I'm sick of eating the same food all the time.

      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!!
