No dumping. I’m eating a Girl Scout cookie right now! (Don’t tell anyone lol). I was in the hospital one night. Did the swallow test in the morning to check for leaks and all was well. Then later in the day they had me drink Water and I vomited a little bit but they sent me home with medication to stop the vomiting. I’ve been fine. Swallow pills no problem.

I didn’t do the liquid vitamins. I bought the Multivitamin with Iron on bariatric pal. The only one that doesn’t make me vomit. I bought calcium chews From target-viactiv

Before surgery I drank the Premier Protein shakes but after surgery my stomach can’t tolerate them. Also need crystal lite to add to Water. I don’t like the taste of regular water anymore for some reason.

Yeah. Don’t go over board buying. Buy some Jello. You’ll want that. And sugar free ice pops.

      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!!
