Agreed. My hubby is a bit mad at me because he has to work a double shift that day, so he won't be able to be there with me, but I'm sure he will get over it. Its just so important to me to have this done before I go back to work. So the sooner the better! I'm having Surgery at Kaiser in Richmond, Ca. How about you?

My hubby will be there in the morning for surgery and home with the kids in the afternoon. Hoping I will be fine alone in the afternoon. I have to stay over one night.

I have to stay 1 night as well, at least my cousin said she will go with me, so I wont be alone. I'm kinda a big baby when I'm alone. Haha.

I have a surgery time now, 3:05pm. That is kinda good and bad for me though. Good because I Don't have to wake up at the crack of dawn to find someone to watch my son, and thwn drive an hr to the hospital. But bad because I am going to be miserable all day without a drink of water! I can't have anything to eat or drink after midnight before my surgery, and I am the type that I HAVE to drink Water when I wake up and throughout the day. So having to wait until after my surgery to get some liquids will be torture!! But it's so worth it!

I am not on any type of pre-op special diet, just a basic meal plan. I just has my last meal at 545, since I had to be done eating by 6pm. I ate well, chicken breast, and a salad. So not shitty, so my surgery can go smoothly tomorrow afternoon hopefully. I did get cleared to be able to drink Water only tomorrow until 11am which is awesome. I'm nervous, but excited. I guess I still don't feel like it's really happening yet. I'll keep you guys posted tomorrow about my pre-op stuff and then Surgery at 3:05pm!

      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!!
