Day 12 feeling really crappy



Recommended Posts

Cammy C,

I just took a 2.5 hour nap. I've been lightheaded and weak. We are in the same boat, I'm on my cycle, already anemic. I only walked for my errands and was back in my car, I feel spent. I couldn't leave the house today and I have to pick you stuff for the house. Not to mention shopping is a real annoying task due to the panicky ppl. I don't want to whine, but really ppl get a grip!!! Yes, we need to be prepared, but I've seen hysteria! I have lost 10- 13 pounds because the scale is fluctuating. We will be fine, this takes time to get everything under control and for our bodies to be our friends again. Hydration is hard for me and I was a fish who drank plenty of Water before surgery. Now it's a daunting task every single day, I never make my goal. I'm trying to increase my intake daily and learn my new stomach. I don't want to vomit or push my limits.

All of you who have chimed in are great contributors to BP, experience is the best teacher.

I'm going to get a little food in me and turn from the news.

People are really all over the place with shopping. Got my hands on the last package of frozen spinach today. I also saw the first two people with gloves and face masks. Pharmacies have signs in their windows that they don't have face masks and disinfection agents anymore. Yet I've only seen two people with masks. What are people doing with these masks? Wearing them at home?

*sigh*

Anyway, I had a routine appointment at the gyno today. Drove back to my flat because I have to start working again on Thursday and I'm now messaging with my husband. He's working home office now.

      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!

        Have a great Wednesday too! Sorry you're hungry all the time, I'm pretty much the same..and I'm sick of eating the same food all the time.

      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!!
