Hi Everyone! Haven't had a chance to get on here as I've been crazy busy at work. I made it through Day 2 of liquid diet and so far so good. Had a headache for a little while but gone now. Not really hungry yet as I thought I would be. It's great to have friends on here going through this at the same time. @@GermanShepherdMama @@eoconnell24 @@alyharwell @@j16

I'd be happy to email or text with anyone who wants to. Message me and I'll share my info.

Are we excited or what???!!!!

@@LadyClair I also had a headache for like 36 hours straight at first.

Night of day 4 liquid diet - had a rough evening with sudden onset nausea. Drank a Protein shake, ate a couple Tums, and then went to bed early. Seems to have helped.

Hiii,

My surgery is on May 12, and I started my pre-op diet yesterday April 28th. Does anyone need a support body? I so need one, i feel sharing this journey with someone that is going through the same thing can help a lot.

Good luck everyone

yeah I do feel really lucky about that... But I'm also wondering if it will end up biting me in the butt when all is said and done after surgery and I'm all liquids for a week or so! Lol

      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!!
