Day 2 and I honestly have to say that I feel amazing. I am now drinking liquids which is going down smoothly. Walks have been amazing. Me and my roommate have a walking schedule which makes it more fun. The spirometer is also a fun little gadget. I felt nauseous a couple of times but they gave me some medicine for that, and haven't had a problem since. My incisions looks lovely, no pain whatsoever. Now I am waiting for lunch which will be Jello and chicken broth. I will let you amazing people know how that is going for me. And again I wanna thank everyone for the lovely warm wishes yesterday and for constantly checking in on me, you guys rockSnapchat-224509428.jpeg 20180628_054634.jpeg

Thanks. Yes my surgeon came to check on me 20 min ago and said that I should be able to go home tomorrow as long as I continue to drink fluids. How's everything going on your end?

I am ok, My surgery was pushed back to August 14th. Really Bummed. Its at a Military hospital so that could change back to sooner. I was ready to get on with it. I am in Georgia near Savannah. This weather is so HOT and steamy. The mosquitos run in gangs here, lol

Awwww that must be quite frustrating to have the date pushed back. Hopefully they move it back up in the mean time... I use to live in Augusta Georgia back when I was a teen, so I remember just how hot it gets down there. I hate mosquitos their super annoying .

I actually did call my surgeons cell phone, Haha and told him his coordinator moved me back just so he keeps me in mind. Their schedules change. If he cant get me in August 14th will have to do. I wish patience was my thing but its sooooo NOT. LOL

      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!!
