Hello Caz

I wish you all the best with that.Yes I think I would be feeling the same aswell nervous and excited.What is your pre op diet if you had to have one.

No news on the date yet I'm going to give it until the end of this month and then I will call them as my sister is getting married in August and I would like it all to be done for then.

Anything I can help you with let me know.Just think this is the start of your new life that is what I am thinking as each day goes by.

Hi Leanne! I'm on a liquid diet ( 4 pints of milk, 1 sugar free jelly + 1 salty drink) a day. Finding Day 2 is a little easier than Day 1...
I'm in Bedford :) so glad I found this app!

Hi!
My mum is amazing, my daughter and I are going to stay with her for the week after my surgery. I have a few friends who have been incredibly supportive and the rest who haven't really said anything.
I'm day 5 now and it's getting better..although the ketosis is making me feel hideous.

Hi Minnie me,

That is good you have support of your family and friends.
I am doing this because it is the only way forward if I have any chance of getting my life back on track.

Yes that ketosis is vile isn't it I have had that when I was on a liquid diet I did a few years back.
What hospital are you having your op in? Keep up the good work.

Leanne

      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!

        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!!
