Hello Frustr8
I'm having the sleeve done in Riverside Ca at Riverside Community Hospital. I have been following a few people and most of my questions have been answered so far. Thanks for the welcome [emoji6]

That's okay, offer still holds good for post surgery questions also. An example-my hospital,wants me to,go on a 6 meal diet, well really 3 meals 3 Snacks, no more than 2.5-3 hrs between, I drew a temporary blank on good lower cal snacks. One of our veterans weighed in and gave me some good advice.We all need help at times.

I am on day 2 of my liquid diet. Not too bad but I find that I am not liking broth as much as I did with my sleeve lol. Still going to have some spoonfuls because I like the warm taste. I purchased some Unjury Broth but wanted to save that for post-op but I may have to crack her open

i just find that I have to keep myself busy to not think about food which is helping. Premier Protein rtd’s keep me full as well which is good

      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!!
