Good Morning Y'all!

Diane - Sorry you feel so yucky! Stay in bed and get well!

I like the smaller weddings, it's so much more personal and stress is not as crazy!

I am so glad it is a short week, although I feel like I have worked a month straight! I am really tired this morning, and I need to get my arse in the shower and wake up!

Only two more days to get through! Then it's work at home, but that's not so bad since I don't have to get dressed up to do it. lol

Well going to get off here and get ready for the day.

Later!

Betty, you're one party throwing gal, always busy too.

Kat, where are you? Hope you're ok.

Well gals, I've been meaning to tell ya, the ps wants to redo my reduction and do implants to give me the lift I need/want. Plus, he's going to re-lipo my underarm area and a puffy area in my tummy. He wants $1,000.00 addl for the implants alone, plus another 1700 to do them, plus the OR and the anesthes fee. If I get my eyelids done at the same time, total cost will be another $6700.00. That's with "no charge" for the redo of the lypo and the redo of the reduction.

I don't think he should charge for the implant install at all, since I left it upto him to do the implants if he couldn't give me the lift and firmness I was looking for. Not sure what I'm going to do at this point, I just know I'm very disappointed with the boobs.

Later gals

      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!!
