Maybe I missed something somewhere but if you're at permanent goal, why are you having the revision?

medically necessary, not weight loss

Here in Tijuana, surgery in about 3 hours...and unlike@amaynard, I don't get to drink until tomorrow! Just found that out yesterday. I'll be on a drip for hydration, but no drinking.

I also went to a dentist here because the last two I saw at home tried to hard-sell me $5500 worth of work I didn't need. Going back on Friday for the work... at least it'll be easy to not eat afterwards, lol.

I am a nurse at the hospital I am having surgery at so lots of familiar faces today. T-minus 1 hour!

Ugh! I can't wait for my surgery now! I just got a candid picture of me that was taken yesterday and omgosh! I am a delusional fatty that still think's I'm skinny! lolololol I swear when I look in the mirror I don't see the weight at all, but when I see myself in pictures I'm like omgoodnesssss! Is that really me?!?! It makes me feel ashamed of myself and want to hide inside.

I felt the same way! I actually did isolate myself from the world ( and still kinda as) for a moment. Im slowly breaking out since I know the surgery is on the horizon, I feel more hopeful for the future and a tad bit less ashamed. Pictures are a no go for me though. Not until this surgery is done. Keep your head up & stay positive grlie! You got this!!!

As hard as it might be, you have to take pictures. There will be days/weeks when you don’t lose, or you wonder if your surgery was worth it, or you’re just mad that you can’t eat cake 🤣 Having these pictures help soooooo much

I had my surgery yesterday 7/1 and I’m doing a lot better today. Yesterday I had horrendous gas pains in my upper shoulders and hurt to breathe a little. I had to get a hiatal hernia repaired that they found during surgery so I’m also sore from that. But all together I think I’m progressing pretty good. I had RNY.
