Every time I feel like eating unhealthy I always go and watch videos in YouTube of people with bariatric surgery, it gives me motivation and tools. Also obesityhelp Facebook page for motivational stories.

The day of the surgery I was 194.10 and went they send me home I was 204.70. So I gained weight because all the liquid and swelling. Today is my second week of the surgery and now I'm 186.

So happy for you! My bypass was on 11/3, two days before you! Continue the good work!

Congrats! Beautiful story!

Beautiful testimony! Keep the great work you are doing! Congrats hot mama! Lol

Keep the excellent job, you can do this! Try chewable vitamins, some taste like a starburst but without the sugar. I'm in my second week of liquid and I need to chew in something so I bought my bariatric vitamins in chewable form. That way I can chew on something

You are the winner! Keep the hard work

Yes you are doing great, keep the good work.

Congrats! Amazing your hard work pay off

Thanks! Yes the first week I was just trying to remember everything. Today is my second week and now I feeling more like myself. I can't wait this Thursday for my first check up and the advance in diet. I can't live with liquid for so long. Yesterday I was tempting with food so I decided to go early to bed and didn't go to the kitchen. I just want something to chew on.

Last Tuesday, November 3rd was my surgery. I had a removal hiatal hernia and a dilatation of the dysphasia too. I was super nervous before the surgery but my hubby was by my side taking care of me. The anesthesiologist was awesome, keeping asking me questions about my family and place until I dozed out. During recovery I was super sleepy, the surgeons and nurse trying to keep me awake but I was just too tired too open my eyes but I can heard them. Around 5pm they transferred me to intensive care since there were not rooms available. Poor hubby trying to talked to me but can't woke up. I remembered him touching my hair and my back so I can wake up. Around 7pm the nurse sat me down and told me that at 9:30pm I was going to walk. I didn't like the sitting position because I was so sleepy but I knew that was the procedure so I can recovered quickly. Around 9pm I woke up and felt better and asked the nurse that I was ready to walk. They were surprise how quickly I bounced back and I did four laps. That night I didn't sleep at all. In intensive care nurses needs to check on you and wake you up. Around 4 am I decided to walked again so I asked a nurse and we did five laps. I was happy my recovery was good and the pain was not bad. The took me to the swallowing test and the dr said it was beautiful! The second day was full of friends and dr checking on me, but still no room available until 7pm. Once the transferred me to the bariatric level. It was quiet but my gas pain level was up and I didn't have too much to sleep. Something new on the second day was my blood pressure was high. Never had problem before with my blood pressure. They gave me medication. The third day I was happy I went home to rest in my bed. Now my job is checking all my routines of protein, medication, vitamins and liquids for the next three weeks until I can progress to the next level. It's kind of difficult but I'm happy I survived the hospital time.

Welcome I'm new here too, just got my surgery last Tuesday. I was waiting long time for my insurance, they found any excuse for denial. They denial mine but my surgeon worked with them until they approved it.

Mine is on November 3rd
