4th here. I'm ready. I did better on the pre op diet than I ever thought I could. Was hit with big NYE party, slapped in the face with reality of how much food plays into my social life. I did fine though. Even sang karaoke for the first time in my life. Good luck everybody!

My surgery is scheduled for the 4th. Getting a little nervous/anxious as my weight keeps fluctuating n the last couple of days. I've called my doctor, but of course the office is closed today. I'm afraid they will post-pone my surgery if i'm only 5lbs down.

Best of luck! I hope that wouldn't be a deal breaker for you.

I don't think there is anything that can prepare us for this! No matter how much research I have done, I still don't feel prepared. At this point, it is an educated leap of faith! You will do great. I hope everything goes smoothly for you.

I had surgery last Easter for a ruptured appendix so I have a general idea of what to expect. It's probably harder if u never had a similar type of surgery because u really don't know how you will react.

Getting excited and a little nervous, mainly because I'm a single mom and don't want to be away from my baby. But it's for the best. My surgery is scheduled for the 4th at 9:30 am. I've been binge watching My 600 pound life in anticipation.

      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!!
