@@jane13, yes last june! I feel so much better, but lately I've stalled. I'm about 18 lbs away from my goal! But my brain doesn't see it. Maybe cause everything sags so much. :) I've also started craving things, not real hunger, so I googled what cravings meant and found charts with for example bread/pasta meant u needed more Protein and legumes, one said green leafy s too. Anyway thought it'd be worth a try! and yes, this last year was NOT easy but worth it. I have no regrets either!

So glad you are ok. Yes what you are experiencing is normal! It will get better but not overnight it all takes time. Each phase invokes new emotion. You will be able to take in more fluids but again it all takes time. The pain will subside. Give yourself time to heal both physically and emotionally. Each day is different from the next. One day I have a burst of energy the next I'm so tired I don't want to budge. No matter what remember your goal and continue to stay focused. We are all here if you need us. YOU GOT THIS!

It definitely gets easier. The first month is difficult, but the first 2 weeks are the hardest. Go easy on yourself. Rest as needed and walk, walk for gas and sip, sip to get in your Protein and Water. Best wishes.

Go get 'em @ heidiboo

You're on the verge of changing your life...

How cool is that???

You might try Gatorade..You need the liquid plus the electrolytes. I had to. I'm almost 7 months out and only 5 pounds from goal. Please push fluids before you get in trouble. Every 15 minutes sip an ounce or so. You got this..now sip sip sip

      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!!
