Can't believe September is finally here - we made it! I allowed myself a bit of a last hurrah today (pizza and salad, a lovely fruit plate - I will miss them a ton over the next few months!) and am ready for the pre-op diet starting tomorrow. Had my teeth cleaned today and I called my surgeon's office just to be sure that was okay - I do not want to jeopardize anything at this point. And it was okay, by the way! Good luck vibes sent to you all!

this may sound like a ridiculous question but how is the purse and the proving everyone going to know who we are my user name on here is not the same as my Facebook profile name I'm going to assume they're going to send a message to inquire?

Day 3 of the pre-op diet in the books. Hopefully this is the worst of it, but today was tough. food is everywhere! Except in my house, I tossed everything (I'm moving soon). Good luck to those who have surgery this week!

My surgery will be on the 26th, so I am officially on the pre-op diet now. I am lucky that I am able to have Protein and non starchy veggies on my diet as long as my calories are 600-800.

It gets better. I am on day 6 and it was day 2 that was the hardest and day 4 where I stopped feeling overly hungry faint and had a headache. Now I just want food so I can chew.

      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!!
