Recommended Posts

I hd a meeting w/ my mortgage broker, today & its in a real ritzy high rise in Plano Tx, a upscale suburb of Dallas tx, &. I wanted to look nice & im elated w/ my 10-12 lbs WL I've always worn 6" heels, bcuz of my profession, even @ 290 lbs( my heaviest) but i new gravity & my new stomach wouldnt agree w/ that @ 13 days post opp, so i wore a cute outfit & my 2" wedges... well after the meeting i went by Walmart & picked up a few things, then had to take my neighbor to run an errand & by time i made it home my stomach had swollen enough for my family members to notic & i was feeling horrible, not in excruciating pain but a dull pain in the bottom of my stomach abouve the groin area... DO ANYONE THINK I MESSED SOMETHING UP? Well i took my pain meds & n bed now watching 600lb life w/ feet elevated!!! I FELT BACK TO NORMAL LIKE DAY 5 Post opp, but we hv to be careful, we are still healing on the inside!!! HMU

Sounds like you were working your lower muscles walking in your heels. Heels does make you stand straighter in turn you were probably over compensating so you didn't hurt your incisions and stomach. That's my theory but if it contIndies I would call the doc. Way to go on your weight loss. I can't wait to get mine done.

      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!!
