Ah three of us

let’s do this together then💪🏻💪🏻

I was the same excited nervous but feeling a little daunted this evening as I was supposed to be having sleeve tomorrow but it’s third April now ,,, another two weeks of pre op. I’m on very low fat and hardly any carbs here too. Not ordered Protein shakes/powder yet as yet as my daughter was going to go out and look about for me when she visits but I may order some now in advance. @maddiesmom @alchaley

Surgery triplets!! @alchaley and @feelinghopefulnow
I’m excited and freaking out a little... lol just nerves though!
I’m ready to be past the first month! I’m not scared but just trying to get prepared. My dr only has me on a low fat before, not liquid only, so I’m happy about that. I’m ordering samples of different Protein Drinks and powders so I’ll have them on hand. I’ve also gotten a few groceries here and there that I’ll need for the mush phase. pudding, jellos, cream of wheat, tuna, etc.

@MaddiesMomma @Feelinghopefulnow How exciting to have TWO surgery sisters! Although I'm only required to do 1 week low fat prior to surgery, I'm opting for 2 weeks to support my daughter who is getting sleeved next week. Next week I'll make sure to do even better than this week and then I have only 3 days of full liquids before surgery, not bad. I'm much more chatty on Facebook than here. If you prefer to keep in touch that way just send me a pm so we can link up!

Have a wonderful day ladies!!!!!

Day three of my liquid diet today and I actually feel pretty amazing. It’s nice to know I’m purging all the crap out of my body and I was super hungry yesterday morning but once I got over that hump I’ve been ok. I’m in a really positive mindset and ready for what is to come!

Finally got my surgery date of April 29th.

They told me if there is a cancellation they will move up the date, nonetheless I am happy. I already have all of my final appointments set up before surgery, meeting with anesthesia, consent form, blood work and nutritionist visit. I was also given the pre-op diet plan which will be 12 days long. (Oh boy)☺️. I am having the sleeve, my doctor and I went over everything again.

Good luck to everyone!!!

      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!!
