Thank you to everyone for your best wishes - 36 hours later and I’m feeling a lot better. First 12 hours were pretty bad and was in quite a lot of pain - it’s definitely subsiding hour by hour and I’m hoping that I’ll be back at home within 24 hours x happy to answer any questions and I promise I’ll be 💯 honest x

That walking really helps and is for your safety to prevent blood clots. Make it a top priority! [emoji106]

Not too bad - still hurting and feel hugely swollen. Stomach bruising really bad - its basically a big purple mess.

food wise - not hungry at all and taking maybe 3-4 teaspoons 3 times a day.

A little stressed with the fragmin injections - but managing pretty well so far - thanks 🙏🏻

      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!!
