Hi guys! I’m 2 months and one week post op (meant to post last week). Life is still good I’m trying to get used to my now slightly smaller frame [emoji23]. My husband looked at me the other day and said, “you can’t see you’re smaller; because I watch you and you still move like you’re 300lbs and you’re not”. I still have a big girl mind set; it really takes some time to adjust to the change in your body.

As for the my diet. I pretty much can eat whatever. I stay away from carbs as best I can. My diet mainly consist of meats and veggies and I try to keep my calorie count under 600/day for now. I recently started back at the gym and it feels good to be back. I’m excited for the new changes in my body that will come about. I’m still overly concerned with excess skin. But I’ve decided I’d much rather deal with excess skin and be able to fit in an airplane seat, than be 350lbs struggling to get out of bed each morning.

Lemon Water has become my new best friend, and not that stuff you buy at the grocery store either. I’m talking about freshly squeezed lemon juice raw and unfiltered. Get you some! The benefits are incomparable, but more importantly it helps with Constipation.

Hey Fluffy Chic, I've been away for a while but I'm happy that you are having an awesome success after your RNY! Keep up the great work!I'm almost at my goal of 175. Today I weighed exactly 181. I had my RNY in September. I'm so happy and have a NEW zest for life. The weight loss really has a positive impact on my psyche! I wish the same for you!

      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!!
