It has been rough. I could not get my fluids in. Swollen esophagus. I had to go to Hospital for fluids. Still dehydrated so they put picc line in on Thursday. Now giving myself fluids. Had a better day yesterday. Was able to get about 32 oz of fluids down and some Protein. Not trying to scare you. Dr Pitt and his staff have been wonderful.

I had a sleeve on 10/11 with Dr. Curry at the Journey Lite office. So far so good. With my pre-op diet I am down 33.2 lbs in about one month. I followed everything they said to do. I still have a hard time getting the fluids in. I average 32-40 oz a day. You have to sip constantly. Good luck. If you have not seen the website: the world according to egg face I highly recommend it. It has helped me a lot.

My Surgery was Fantastic!!! I will be three months on 2/20 and I am down 57.4 pounds. I love Dr. Curry and all the staff, I had no complications and I made sure I followed all the guidelines to the T. I feel AWESOME!! If you have specific questions once you get started, please don't hesitate to shoot me a message.

      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!!
