Nice! How are you doing? My first consult was Jan 4. I just got insurance approval now waiting for them to call and set up everything. It has been a long wait. Finally have insurance that will cover it.



I’m doing pretty well! Recovery was super quick for me. When they say to start walking ASAP in the hospital, they mean it. I think it helped a lot. Sutures healed super quick, no complications for me outside of gnarly reflux. All in all, loved them!! Good luck!

I am from SW VA near Blacksburg. I had my surgery done in Tijuana MX through Bariatric Pal. Msjenae I see you are from Charlotte NC. Are you going to the Living Beyond the Tool seminar in Spartanburg SC? Jopax35 and FlyEagleFly where are you from in South Jersey? I lived most of my life in that area.

Msjenae Dr Nowzaradan is the key note speaker and will be talking about why we gain and later regain. I would love to see you there.

Katkatlady no Blacksburg is the home of VA Tech , home of the Hokies. It is where that huge massacre was several yrs ago. But it is very pretty round here with the Appalachian Trail, the New River and the Blue Ridge Pkwy. I think JMU is about 2 1/2 hrs north of us on Hwy 81. Pretty up there too.

My bad, but maybe I'll see both towns, the hourglass isn't empty yet on this ole girl. My son says as I get older I get more country, told him I'm just getting back to my roots. Yeah I remember that massacre, seems like a lot of sorrow in your area. I keep remembering a bumper sticker I once saw " Life is fragile, handle with prayer".

      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!!
