I'm in the waiting room and I'm super early, I think I was a bit over enthusiastic to get here. No one is here yet. Butterflies are seriously taking over my body.

See you on the Bench

How did everyone do? I had some bad abdominal pressure yesterday but it got better throughout the day. This morning I have had some good burps and I have slight discomfort in the upper chest but not too bad. Walked a couple times yesterday and I will walk through the day today.

Not to bad. Cant really sleep. Recliner sucks. I'm not physically able to lay down in the bed I get severe shoulder pains when I try. Other than that I'm feeling really good.

I've also been walking a good bit.

The pain has been pretty significant, I'm glad about the meds they give me! Overall doing well, will go home later this morning. Have walked the halls & being up & moving feels better than laying in the bed.
Can't believe it's done!!!

Pain as bad for the first hour after I woke up then find with drugs until my IV came out and they couldn't get a new one in for 2.5 hrs during this time no meds so the pain came back. As soon as I was reconnected the meds got it under control.

Went for swallow test this morning now waiting for sign off for liquid Breakfast.

I have been up and walking lots which feels good. Slept pretty much most of the day and night. Feel very energized this morning.

Gas has moved up to chest from back just an inconvenience nothing very painful.

All clear on the swallow/leak test. Doctor came to visit and signed off in removing the IVs and ordered a clear liquid breakfast. Nice assortment of items so I can see what works.

When you think small sips think smaller.

Definitely some discomfort going down but it's all new and my new stomach and I will figure it.

At about pain level 2 just when I move and it's 24hrs after surgery.

I can go home as soon as I can tolerate a Protein Shake for lunch.

Right now everything is looking good and my keenest to get on wth my new life is in overdrive.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks
