I am very excited for my surgery but also very nervous. I've been online so much and worry about complications and pain and loose skin. I almost changed my mind for a minute. It's all just starting to freak me out a little ????

I was trying to think of the last time I felt this nervous and excited at the same time. I realized it was every major lif event - graduation, wedding, childbirth. Being on the brink of a new life is both fearful and exciting. I'm so grateful for this chance at a new life. My goal is to feel comfortable in my body.

Lordy, I decided to redecorate my Bedroom in a weird pre surgery nesting impulse. It's going to be great when I finish but it's not going to be done before Wednesday's surgery. Probably not the smartest decision.

Bsweetness -- I'm in Rochester, too! Love that there's no long liquid diet before surgery!

      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!!
