Recommended Posts

So I'm a widow and my kids are out of the house and I would love to make friends with you guys. But does anyone live near waco. It would be fun to do things together, Work out, watch movies, share our life stories, take our dogs out. I am not a super social person, but I miss compansionship and friendship and although I do love Rock, I miss humans lol

Seriously, does anyone live near Waco.

We can work out together or.. I don't know, something

Lol

I am in Waco. My surgery was 11/22/17. How has your post surgery life been? I have had a pretty big hiccup myself.

Girl, has it? I'm sorry

What was your weight on surgery date?

Mine was 321 and now (rolling eyes) it goes up and down between 304-306 ( for two weeks)

Ugh.. pray girl, let us pray

Nice to meet you

I was 323 day of surgery. I have not been fluctuating as far as I know. The clinic has not really encouraged weighing myself very often, they are focused on us eating the way we are supposed to and of course Water, WATER, WATER! Water ended up being the problem for me. I went through a couple of weeks where I could not keep anything down and at one point I could not drink water. I apparently am hypersensitive to tastes and smells now and they have me on two nausea meds to try and help me keep things down. It is working pretty well so far. I am able to drink water again and I am slowly eating solids.

      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!!
